The problem is about adding water to detergent solution to make a detergent solution.

In the problem g is taken for the number of gallons of water.

So, we can rephrase the given problem in simple words as

g gallons of water is added to  11 gallons of 18% detergent solution to get 12% detergent solution.

Let us write it in form of an equation,

g gallons of water is being added to 11 gallons of solution.

The total amount of solution will be (11 + g) gallons.

11 gallons of 18% detergent solution = 12% detergent solution.

For percent we can write over 100.

Therefore, above equation can be written as

11 × 18/100 = 12/100(g+11)

11 time 18 = 198

Therefore,

198/100 = 12/100(g+11)

Converting 198/100 into decimals, we get 1.98

We can rewrite above eqaution as

1.98 =12/100(g+11)

Dividing both sides by (g+11), we get

\frac{19.8}{g+11}=\frac{12}{100}

Therefore, correct option is D. 1.98/11+g = 12/100.

StartFraction 1.98 Over 11 + g EndFraction minus StartFraction 12 Over 100 EndFraction = 1

StartFraction 1.98 Over 11 + g EndFraction + StartFraction 12 Over 100 EndFraction = 1

StartFraction 11 + g Over 1.98 EndFraction = StartFraction 12 Over 100 EndFraction

StartFraction 1.98 Over 11 + g EndFraction = StartFraction 12 Over 100 EndFraction
