Question

The Mendez family used 12 gallons of gasoline on a 300-mile trip.

At that rate, how far would they go on 9 gallons of gasoline?

Answer 1

do you divide

Answer 2

Use proportions
2 Gallons / 300 Mile trip
\[ \frac{ 12 ~Gallons}{300 ~ Miles}=\frac{9 ~Gallons}{x ~Miles}\]
\[\frac{12}{300}=\frac{9}{x}\]
Cross multiply and solve for x

Answer 3

12*x=9(300)
12x=2700
Now divide 12 from both sides
and we get x=225

so the answer is 25
