Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose you drive a car 392 miles on one tank of gas. The tank holds 14 gallons of gas. This means that
1 gallon of gas would be used to drive 392/14 = 28 miles
a) The number of miles traveled varies directly with the number of gallons of gas used.
Let x =number of gallons of gas you use.
Let y = the number of miles travelled.
Since y varies directly with x, we will introduce a constant of proportionality, k. Therefore,
y = kx
If 28 miles will require 1 gallon of gas, it means
28 = 1×k
k = 28
So y = 28x
b) we want to determine how far you can drive with 3.7 gallons of gas.
x = 3.7
y = 28x = 28×3.7
y = 103.6 miles
In order to answer the question we need the lengths to do the math.
The answer would be 2,700,000.
This is because of the rules of rounding.
If a digit is 4 or smaller, it rounds down.
If a digit is 5 or more, it rounds up.
The number is 2, 746, 052 so it stays at 700,000.
TLDR: 2,700,000
The least common multiple (LCM) of two or more non-zero whole numbers is the smallest whole number that is divisible by each of those numbers. In other words, the LCM is the smallest number that all of the numbers divide into evenly.
