Answer:
100% = 65 Gallons; 70% = 45.5 Gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
The important piece of information here is that 13 gallons of water makes the container 1/5 of the way full, aka 20%. If the question is simply, how many gallons will it hold, then we multiply 13 by 5 to get 100% at 65 gallons. To get the amount held at 7/10, or 70%, we simply multiply 65 with 7/10 to get 45.5 gallons.

1) Write this as a ratio...
77.5 miles / 3.1 gallons = x miles / 8.2 gallons
Solve for x... multiply by 8.2 gallons on both sides (that cancels it on the right) side of the equation.
8.2 gallons * 77.5 miles / 3.1 gallons = x
635.5/ 3.1 = x
211.83 miles = x

2) If we let boys = b, then girls has to be b + 15 (since there are 15 more girls than boys). Now together there are 85 members of the band so... boys + girls = 85 and since girls is b + 15, then...
b + b+15 = 85
Now solve for b. First combine like terms...
2b + 15 = 85
Now subtract 15 from each side (cancels the 15 on the left)
2b + 15 - 15 = 85 - 15
2b = 70
Now divide each side by 2 (cancels 2 on the left)
2b / 2 = 70 / 2
b = 35
So there are 35 boys in the band.
Just FYI, that also means there are 35+15 = 50 girls. Just so happens that 50 + 35 = 85 so our work checks!

Answer:
70 yards.
