A milk truck delivers 486 dozen gallons of milk to stores in 1 day. write and solve an equation to find g, the number of gallons of milk the milk truck delivers in 1 day



Answer :

If a milk truck delivers 486 dozen gallons of milk to stores in 1 day, then equation to calculate "g",  the number of gallons of milk the milk truck delivers in 1 day, can be written as [g = (486 * 12)]

As per the question statement, a milk truck delivers 486 dozen gallons of milk to stores in 1 day.

We are required to determine the equation that can best express "g", the number of gallons of milk the milk truck delivers in 1 day.

To solve this question, first we need to know what an equation is.

  • An equation is a mathematical statement, that determines the relation of equality among two separate expressions, each containing numbers or variables or both, and operators, by connecting them with an "equal to" sign in between.

Here, We know that (1 dozen = a set of 12),

Then, [486 Dozen Gallons = (486 * 12)] gallons, which is the total number of gallons of milk the milk truck delivers in 1 day.

On the other hand, the variable "g" can also be used to determine the number of gallons of milk the milk truck delivers in 1 day.

Therefore, our required equation is [g = (486 * 12)].
