    A camel can drink 15 gallons of water in 10 minutes. At this rate, how much water can the camel drink in 8 minutes?

    Set up a proportion of gallons of water to time where g is the number of gallons of water in 8 minutes.
    15/10 = g/8

    Run this problem through our proportion calculator to get g = 12.
