She should use 0.74 gallons you have to take 20 and timed it by 3.7 % and thats how you get to see whats left that she need.
We have to use the Distributive Property in this equation.
By the Distributive Property,

becomes

Now we need to isolate x. Remember PEMDAS?


Simplify the right side.

Years of decay...
It takes around 4 years for something to go through their half life (depending on the thing). This chart is showing the years go by (half lives that occur within the years) while the decaying is happening.
"Dimensional analysis" is the primary way to make conversions between any units. Some have trouble because they fail to make it an important point to label units, but labeling units correctly makes tracking and making any conversion very simple...The process and thinking is that you want to cancel out units that you don't need in the solutions...
(198ft/s)(12in/ft)(2.54cm/in)(m/100cm)=60.3504m/s (and that is exact)
d=5s(60.3504m/s)=301.752m
ugh...assume that a meter equals 3.3 feet and do not round your answers???
really? These people are idiots when there is an exact conversion. What is the point of not rounding when you are using a horrible approximation? :D
(198ft/s)(m/3.3ft)=60m/s
d=5s(60m/s)=300m
