Answer:

96 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

So to wash 4 loads of dishes, you need 32 gallons.  If you divide 32 by 4 you get 8.  That means you need 8 gallons of water per load.  Since there are 12 loads and you need 8 gallons per load, if you multiply 8 X 12 you get 96.  This means you need 96 gallons of water for 12 loads of dishes.  Hope it helps!
