Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you need 10 loads you know that for 4 loads you use 32 gallons. And to go from 4 to 10 you divide 10 and 4 to get an answer of 2.5. So all you have to do is multiple 32 gallons by 2.5 to then get an answer of 80.

Answer: 80 gallons of water.

Step-by-step explanation: For 10 loads of dishes, you need 80 gallons of water. To find this you need to use the information that was given. For 4 loads of dishes, you use 32 gallons of water. You can do 2x32 to find out how many gallons of water you use for 8 loads of dishes (which is 64). To get 10 loads of dishes you need 2 more loads of dishes so you would do 32 divided by 2 (16) to find out how many gallons it would take. In all, you add 64 and 16 to get 80 gallons of water for 10 dishes.
