The problem here is: Too many words.
If you boil the problem down to the bare facts, the question is:
"$210 is 15% of what number ?"
I'm pretty sure you can take it from there,
but here's the rest of it anyway:
$210 = 15% of (March amount)
$210 = 0.15 x (March amount)
Divide each side by 0.15 : $1400 = March amount .
Check:
1400 + 210 = 1610
1.15 x 1400 = 1610 yay!

Step-by-step explanation:
25 cuz 18/3=6 and 22+9=31. 31-6=25
Answer:
40 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of gallons that would completely fill the bathtub be represented by N.
Since 12 gallons of water gives 30% of the number of gallons to fill the bathtub, then;
30% of N = 12
x N = 12
30N = 12 x 100
30N = 1200
divide both sides by 30,
N = 
= 40
The number of gallons that would completely fill the bathtub is 40 gallons.
