George’s car can drive 30 miles on 1/2 gallon of gas. How many gallons of gas will he use to drive 20 miles?

1 answer:

8 0

The best way to do this is to set up a proportion

30 20
---- = -----
0.5 x

then cross multiply and divide

20 × 0.5 = 10/30=1/3

he needs 1/3 tank of gas to drive 20 miles

I hope I've helped!

____ [38]

Answer:

y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

5(3y - 13) = 6y - 2

5*3y + 5*-13 = 6y - 2

15y - 65 = 6y - 2

15y - 6y = 65 - 2

9y = 63

y = 63/9

y = 7

Check:

5((3*7)-13) = 6*7 - 2

5(21-13) = 42 - 2

5*8 = 40

Dovator [93]

I found this --The first step to dividing fractions is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. Finally, simplify the fractions if needed.
