To find out how much water it will take to water 35 plants, we first determine the amount of water used per plant.
1. You use 4 gallons of water for 14 plants:
[
text{Water per plant} = frac{4 text{ gallons}}{14 text{ plants}} approx 0.2857 text{ gallons per plant}
]
2. Now, to find out how much water is needed for 35 plants:
[
text{Water for 35 plants} = 0.2857 text{ gallons per plant} times 35 text{ plants} approx 10 text{ gallons}
]
So, it will take approximately 10 gallons of water to water 35 plants.
