Answer:

m = 38.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider the following proportion.

$18.45/m gal = $3.60/7.5gal

According to the cross products property of proportions, the product of the means is equal to the product of the extremes.

$18.45 × 7.5gal = m gal × $3.60

m gal = $18.45 × 7.5gal/ $3.60

m gal = 38.44gal

m = 38.44

\dfrac{\$18.45}{n \text { gallon}}  =  \dfrac{\$3.60}{7.5 \text { gallon}}

Cross multiply
n \times \  3.60 = 7.5 \times \  18.45

Combine like terms
3.60n = 138.375

Find n
n = 138.375\div 360

Answer
n = 0.38 \text { (nearest hundredth)}
