First let that number be y.
List the equation by the given info.
y x 112/100 = 56
Shift y to the other side by turning it to ÷y.
112/100 = 56/y
Use cross method,
100 x 56 = 112y
5600 = 112y
y = 50
Therefore that number is 50
Let's make an equation where x is the number of gallons and y will be the overall price.
2.5x=y; since it is $2.52 PER gallon, you need to multiply the amount of gallons by the cost. In this case, it is 4.
2.5(4)=10
So, the price of 4 gallons is $10.
