Answer 1

Here are the steps to solve this word problem:
* Cameron uses 17.2 gallons of water per shower
* He showers once per day
* We want to know how many gallons he will use in 2 weeks
* In 2 weeks there are 14 days (2 weeks x 7 days/week = 14 days)
* So in 14 days Cameron will shower 14 times
* 14 showers x 17.2 gallons/shower = 241.6 gallons
* To convert to quarts:
* 1 gallon = 4 quarts
* So 241.6 gallons x 4 quarts/gallon = 966.4 quarts

Therefore, the answers are:
34.5 gallons
