    A camel can drink 15 gallons of water in 10 minutes. At this rate, how much water can the camel drink in 14 minutes?

    Set up a proportion of gallons of water over minutes where g is the number of gallons the camel can drink in 14 minutes:
    15/10 = g/14

    Typing this proportion into our search engine, we get:
    g = 21
