Write and solve an equation to answer the question

17 is what percent of 68

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Is means equals and of means multiply

17 = P * 68

Divide each side by 68

17/68 = 68P/68

.25 = P

25% = P

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal
