a fuel tank for a bus holds 95 gallons of diesel fuel when it is full. The tank is currently 2/5 full. How many gallons of fuel are currently in the tank? I need help trying to get the method to solve the problem.

What is 1/5th of a tank if a full tank is 95 gallons?

Thanks, I figured out what the answer is. It was 38 gallons. I have to stop being lazy with math.
