Answer:
The price of one gallon of gasoline is $3.15
Step-by-step explanation:
If the lady buys 2.4 gallons of gasoline for a total of $7.56, then as the problem suggests, one can find the unknown price of gasoline per gallon (p) by solving the equation for the unknown "p":
2.4 p = 7.56
then divide both sides by 2.4 to isolate the unknown "" on one side of the equal sign:
p = 7.56/2.4
p = $3.15
so this is the price per gallon of gasoline.
So 1/2 is 5/10 and 2/5 is 4/10 common denonominator is 10 ( i think )
Step-by-step explanation:
