Hans drove 420 miles using 18 gallons of gas. At this rate, how many gallons of gas would he need to drive 357 miles?

OpenStudy (littlebird):

\[\frac{ 420 }{ 18}=\frac{ 357 }{ x}\]

I have a hard time constructing them into equations

OpenStudy (mertsj):

miles over gallons = miles over gallons

OpenStudy (littlebird):

x is the unknown value
