So if Caelyn collected 21 shells in total and her brother collected 4 times as much all you need to do is multiply 21 by 4 and you get your answer which is 84
STEP 1:
Find percentage. 57 out of 100 is the percentage to multiply by.
57/100= 0.57 (= 57%)
STEP 2:
Multiply percentage by the total gallons ordered (24).
=24 gallons * 0.57
=13.68 gallons
ALTERNATIVE METHOD (use which works best for you)
Set up a proportion. 57 to 100 is x out of 24 gallons.
x= number skim gallons to order
57/100= x/24
cross multiply
(57*24)= (100*x)
1368= 100x
divide both sides by 100
13.68 gallons= x
ANSWER: Since you cannot order a partial gallon of milk, round up to 14 whole gallons
