Question

When Teddy filled up the tank on his moped, it cost $5.03. How much gas did his moped need? Explain how you

Answer 1

Answer:

His moped need 1.20 gallons of gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.  

When Teddy filled up the tank on his moped, it cost $5.03.

The cost of 1 gallon = $4.19

Divide both the sides by 4.19

1/4.19 gallon = $1

Now multiply both the sides by 5.03.

1/4.19 × 5.03 gallon = $1 × 5.03

5.03/4.19 gallon = $5.03

1.20 gallon ≈ $5.03

Hence, his moped need 1.20 gallons of gas.

Answer 2

Answer:

1.2 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 5.03 (total cost) by 4.19 (cost/gallon)

The answer to this is 1.2. This makes sense because 1 gallon is $4.19, and $5.03 is only a little more than that. 1.2 gallons is only a little more than a gallon. Hope this helps!
