Question

There are 128 ounces in 1 gallon. How many ounces equaled 14 gallons?

Answer 1

To find the answer, we just have to use the following proportion

`\begin{gathered} \frac{128\text{ounces}}{1\text{gallon}}=\frac{x}{14\text{gallons}} \\ x=(128\cdot14)/(1)=1,792ounces \end{gathered}`

Hence, 14 gallons are equivalent to 1,792 ounces.
