He uses 3/16 gal for 1/3 square foot.

1/3 square foot is 1/3 of 1 square foot.

1 square foot is 3 times as much area as 1/3 square foot, so he must use 3 times as much water. We need to multiply 3 * 3/16.

3 * 3/16 = 3/1 * 3/16 = 9/16

Answer: He uses 9/16 gallon.

Which expression lists the three consecutive integers starting with a number x? A. x, x + 2, x + 4 B. x + 1, x, x + 2 C. x – 1,

Vika [28.1K]

Consecutive integers are like 1, 2, and 3. They are in a row. Think about plugging numbers in for x. 1 and 1+2 are not consecutive, so A is not the answer. B and C don't start with x, so they aren't the answer. That leaves D, because it starts with x, then goes to x+1, and then to x+2. These are consecutive, because if x was 1, it would be 1, 2, 3.

The answer is D.

I hope this helps :)
