answer:

29 gallons.

explanation:

to find the percent of a number, you must multiply that number by the prevent in the form of a decimal. i.e 16% =0.16

25 * 0.16 =4

25 + 4 = 29

you add the 4 because that is 16% of 25 and you’re adding it because there were more gallons than estimated.

if this is wrong i apologize but if it’s right would you mind giving brainliest?
