Jim drove 436 miles using 16 gallons of gas. At this rate, how many limes would he drive using 14 gallons of gas?
almond37 [142]
The ratio here is 16:436.
The easiest way to solve this is finding how many miles Jim can drive using just 1 gallon. We can do this by dividing both sides of the ratio by 16.

16÷16 is 1
436÷16 is 27.25
so our new ratio is 1 gallon:27.25 miles.

next we simply multiply both sides by 14.
1x14=14
27.25x14=381.5 miles :)

An employee ‘s hourly raise went up from $10 per hour to to $12 per hour . What is the rate of increase
Snowcat [4.5K]

20% increase

the percent increase = \frac{increase}{original} × 100%

increase = $12 - $10 = 2$

increase = \frac{2}{10} × 100% = 20%
