Set up a ratio:
\n" ); document.write( "\"%2832+miles%29%2F1+gallon%29\"=\"%28%28475miles%29%2F%28x+gallons%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Cross-multiply
\n" ); document.write( "(32 miles)(x gallons)=(1 gallon)(475 miles)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Simplify
\n" ); document.write( "32x=475
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "solve for the x-term:
\n" ); document.write( "x=475/32
\n" ); document.write( "x=14.844 gals
\n" ); document.write( ".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
