STEP 1:
Find percentage. 57 out of 100 is the percentage to multiply by.
57/100= 0.57 (= 57%)
STEP 2:
Multiply percentage by the total gallons ordered (24).
=24 gallons * 0.57
=13.68 gallons
ALTERNATIVE METHOD (use which works best for you)
Set up a proportion. 57 to 100 is x out of 24 gallons.
x= number skim gallons to order
57/100= x/24
cross multiply
(57*24)= (100*x)
1368= 100x
divide both sides by 100
13.68 gallons= x
ANSWER: Since you cannot order a partial gallon of milk, round up to 14 whole gallons

Answer:
7/ 36
Step-by-step explanation:
Roll of 2 fair six sided die :
Sample space = 6² = 36
Sum of 7:
(1,6) ; (6,1) ; (3,4) ; (4,3) ; (2,5) ; (5,2) = 6
Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes
Required outcome = 7
Total possible outcomes = 36
P(obtaining a sum of 7) = 7 / 36
