To convert 50 liters to gallons, we can use the conversion factor that 1 gallon is approximately 3.79 liters.

  1. First, we can set up the conversion formula: \[ \text{gallons} = \frac{\text{liters}}{\text{liters per gallon}} = \frac{50 \text{ liters}}{3.79 \text{ liters/gallon}} \]

  2. Now, we calculate: \[ \text{gallons} = \frac{50}{3.79} \approx 13.2 \]

So, there are approximately 13.2 gallons in 50 liters when rounded to the nearest tenth.

The correct answer is 13.2 gallons.
