Answer 1

To find out how many gallons the container holds, you can use the conversion factor where 1 gallon is approximately 3,785 milliliters.

You can calculate the number of gallons by dividing the number of milliliters by the number of milliliters in a gallon:

\[ \text{Gallons} = \frac{\text{milliliters}}{3,785 \text{ milliliters/gallon}} \]

Substituting in the values:

\[ \text{Gallons} = \frac{34,065 \text{ milliliters}}{3,785 \text{ milliliters/gallon}} \approx 9 \]

So, the container holds approximately 9 gallons.

Therefore, the correct response is 9.
