Molique is taking a road trip every time he stops for gas he records the number of miles he has driven and the number of gallons
1 answer:
Based on the fact that the distance driven is proportional to the gallons used, the missing figure is 8 gallons.
<h3>Why is 8 gallons the missing figure?</h3>The question is incomplete so I will use a similar question to explain the concept.
If the number of miles driven is proportional to the number of gallons used then you can find the number of miles driven per gallon as:
= Number of miles driven / Number of gallons used
= 112 / 4
= 28 miles per gallon
You can also use other entries in the table to get the same answer:
= 280 / 10 gallons
= 28 miles per gallon
If 224 miles have been driven, the number of gallons used would therefore be:
= Number of miles driven / Miles per gallon
= 224 / 28
= 8 gallons

Remark
Interesting way to teach this problem. I'll see if I can make a table that answers the question as it is presented.
Now all you need do is collect the nine terms from the table and put the like ones together if there are any.
