When you calculate area, you are multiplying the length and the width by each other, while also multiplying the unit by itself during the operation. This causes the unit to become squared in the value for the area.

yuradex [85]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the cars are blue. it can travel 31 1/2 miles on 1 1/4 gallons of gasoline. Converting 31 1/2 miles to decimal, it becomes 31.5 miles. Converting 1 1/4 gallons of gasoline to decimal, it becomes 1.25 gallons of gasoline.

Therefore, the miles per gallon for the blue car is

31.5/1.25 = 25.2 miles per gallon.

Another car is red it can travel 28 4/5 miles on 4/5 gallon of gasoline.

Converting 28 4/5 miles to decimal, it becomes 28.8 miles. Converting 4/5 gallons of gasoline to decimal, it becomes 0.8 gallons of gasoline.

Therefore, the miles per gallon for the red car is

28.8/0.8 = 36 miles per gallon.
