keisha drove 380 miles using 14 gallond of gas. At this rate, how many gallons of gas would she need to drive 418 miles?

1 answer:

8 0

14gallons=380miles

14/380=<span>0.03684210526gallons/mile
</span>
418*<span>0.03684210526=15.4gallons
</span>
or you could cross multiply

14gallons=380miles
x gallons=418miles

$\frac{14}{380} = \frac{x}{418}$

380x=5852
divide both sides by 380
x=15.4 gallons
