Set up a ratio of known to unknown:
Let X = the amount of gas needed for 500 miles:
220/12 = 500/x
Cross multiply:
220x = 6000
Divide both sides by 220:
X = 6000 / 220
x = 27.27 gallons (round answer as needed).

Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that B makes $100.
Then A makes $75.
So, your question then becomes 100 is what percent of 75?
This can be solved by setting up the proportion 100 / 75 = x / 100
75x = 10000
x = 133.3
So, B's income is 33.3% more than A's income.
