You do not need to use the remainder theorem to find p(3). Just plugin 3 where the x is located in
Answer is a.
Let the number of gallons consumed be the first car be x, and that of the second car, y. Then:
x + y = 50 . . . . . . . (1)
20x + 15y = 850. . . (2)
(1) x 20 => 20x + 20y = 1000 . . . (3)
(2) - (3) => -5y = -150 => y = -150/-5 = 30
From (1), x + 30 = 50 => x = 50 - 30 = 20
Therefore, first car consumed 20 gallons and the second consumed 30 gallons.

The fraction bar means "divided by." So finding the decimal equivalent of a fraction such as 1/4 means 1 divided by 4.
1 ÷ 4 = 0.25
It is not necessary to reduce a fraction before you convert it to a decimal but doing so might make the long division easier if you are doing it by hand.
For example, 9/12 = 9 ÷ 12 = 0.75. If you solve this with a calculator then it is easy to get the answer. However, if you use long division to solve this problem by hand or in your head, reducing 9/12 = 3/4, may make the problem easier. You may even recognize that 3/4 = 0.75 because 3 quarters equals 75 cents.

Tristan can make 5 fruit baskets with no fruit left over. 9 x 5 = 45 and 4 x 5 = 20
9 apples and 4 pears will go in each fruit basket.
