the number of gallons bought is 15 gallons
Explanation:Number of gallons bought = g
Total cost of the g gallons = $43.95
The cost of one gallon = $2.93
Total cost of g gallons = Number of gallons bought × The cost of one gallon
$43.95 = g × $2.93
43.95 = 2.93g
Divide both sides by 2.93:
43.95/2.93 = 2.93g/2.93
15 = g
Hence, the number of gallons bought is 15 gallons
