You have 6 gallons of liquid in a container. You pour it equally into 4 smaller containers. After filling the 4 containers with equal amounts of liquid, you have 0.3 gallons left over in the original container.
How much did you pour into each container?

I know, I subtracted instead of adding. It's been so long since I have done algebra.

Yeah, I was primarily questioning his --it stomped me-- bit.
I'd say it is pretty standard material found in fifth grade curricula.

This has to be a troll. OP wants us to freak out because he clearly isn't a math whiz.
