Answer:
60miles
Step-by-step explanation:
if they drove x miles in the city and y miles on the highway then you know that
x + y = 280
x/12 + y/20 = 16
x + 12y/20 = 16*12 = 192
8y/20 = 88
y = 220
x = 280-y = 280-220 = 60
Total number of cans = N
number of weeks = w
The multiplier is 6.
Therefore the expression must be:
N = 6w
First: work out the difference (decrease) between the two numbers you are comparing. Then divide the decrease by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. If your answer is a negative number, then this is a percentage increase. :)
