Answer:
16,000 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's write a ratio
8,000:20,000
Let's write another ratio
x:40,000
We can write a percent proportion.

We can see that the relationship between the denominators is multiplied by 2 so that means the relationship between 8,000 and x is x is 2 times greater than 8,000
Let me know if you have any questions.
13.7*1/10=1.37 So far she has hiked 1.37 miles.
18 / 1 = x / 15......18 miles to 1 gallon = x miles to 15 gallon
cross multiply
(1)(x) = (18)(15)
x = 270 miles
