Answer:

  25 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming miles-per-gallon is a constant, the amount of gas is proportional to the miles driven:

  gallons/(500 mi) = (13 gal)/(260 mi)

  gallons = (500 mi)/(260 mi)(13 gal) . . . . multiply by 500 mi

  gallons = 25 gal . . . . do the arithmetic

The van will need 25 gallons of gas to go 500 miles.

Well, that's incorrect because according to the Order of Operation [GEMS\BOMDAS\PEMDAS etc.], that -7 has to be distributed amongst all the other terms in parentheses. Besides, you did the wrong operation when you inserted that subtraction symbol in substitution of the parentheses, which means to MULTIPLY. So, the order goes as follows:

12 - 7[72]

-504 + 12 = -492 [OR 12 - 504]

-492 is your answer. You get it now?
