Answer

$C_3H_8+5O_2\rightarrow 3CO_2+4H_2O$

Work Step by Step

$C_3H_8+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$ Use a coefficient of 3 for $CO_2$ to balance $C$. Use a coefficient of 4 for $H_2O$ to balance $H$. $C_3H_8+O_2\rightarrow 3CO_2+4H_2O$ Use a coefficient of 5 for $O_2$ to balance $O$. $C_3H_8+5O_2\rightarrow 3CO_2+4H_2O$
