Answer:

g=dx

Or, if you'r wanting the solved equation..

12 = 0.5 x 24

Explanation:

If she has 12 gallons in her tank and you look at what it's asking us to do, "..number of gallons of gas, g" pairs up with the 12 gallons while the 0.5 gallons used per day pairs with "...the number of days, d, she has driven to school."

Hope this helped!
