If 12 cows produce 70 gallons of milk, how many gallons of milk would 42 cows produce?
Answer:
245 gallons of milk
Step-by-step explanation:
Determine the amount of milk in gallons that a cow produce.
[tex]\frac{70gal}{12cows}=5.8333…gal/cow[/tex]
Multiply by 42 cows.
[tex]\frac{5.8333…gal}{cow}(42cows)=245gal[/tex]
