Answer:

18.18 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

A truck uses 1 tablespoon of gasoline to drive 125 yards.

Now, 1 gallon of gasoline contains 256 tablespoons of gasoline.

So, the truck uses 1 gallon i.e. 256 tablespoons of gasoline to drive (256 × 125) = 32000 yards.

Now, 1-mile distance contains 1760 yards.

Therefore, the truck uses 1 gallon of gasoline to drive $\frac{32000}{1760} = 18.18$ miles. (Answer)

IRINA_888 [86]

In the given mathematical value of 5,000 to round off this number to the nearest hundred, we can elaborate the number values using the expanded form to clearly see the order position: 1. 5,000 = thousands
Now we can observe the numerical value of 4,900 as the rounding number which becomes

4900 = 5000
4800 = 5000
4700 = 5000
4600 = 5000
4500 = 5000
