2500 X 15 = 37500
37500 ÷ 100 = 375
375 + 200 = 575
The answer is C.

The easiest way to answer this question is by going through each answer one by one:
14:6 = 28:18
28 <span>÷ 14 = 2
</span>18 <span>÷ 6 = 3
</span>Since both numbers were multiplied by different numbers, we can establish that this is not a true proportion.
42:7 = 6:2
42 ÷ 7 = 6
7 ÷ 7 = 1
42:7 = 6:1
By dividing both numbers by the same number, we can establish that the answer is wrong.
2:3 = 3:2
This is obviously wrong. That is because, in ratios, the order counts. So the first 3 is more than the first 2, therefore the second number on the other side of the ratio should be more than the first.
3:5 = 12:20
12 <span>÷ 3 = 4
</span>20 <span>÷ 5 = 4
</span>Since both numbers were multiplied by the same number, this is a true proportion.
The answer is D.
First, you should calculate the square footage of the fence.6ft∗300ft=1800ft2 Then to find the number of gallons of paint needed, divide the area of the fence by the area covered with each gallon of paint: 1800ft2÷400ft2=4.5 So, 4.5 gallons of paint, or rounding up, 5.
