use proportions:
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "miles driven (84) / fuel used (3) = unknown miles driven (x) / fuel used (9.5)
\n" ); document.write( "84/3 = x/9.5
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "solve for x:
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides by 9.5:
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "9.5*84/3 = 9.5*x/9.5
\n" ); document.write( "9.5*84/3 = x*9.5/9.5
\n" ); document.write( "9.5*84/3 = x*1
\n" ); document.write( "9.5*84/3 = x
\n" ); document.write( "x = 9.5*84/3
\n" ); document.write( "x = 266 miles
