Answer:

<u>15.4 gallons</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved using a proportion. Keep in mind that " $mi.$ " is miles and " $g$ " is gallons

$\frac{14g}{380mi}=\frac{g}{418}$

Cross multiply.

$380g = 5852$

Solve.

$\frac{380g}{380}=\frac{5852}{380} \\\\g = 15.4$

Therefore, Adbul would need 15.4 gallons to drive 418 miles.

Vitek1552 [10]

Mr. Vella can build the wall in 4 days, however only works on it for 3 days. That means that he has completed 75% of the and is leaving 25% for his apprentice.

We need to figure out how long it takes the apprentice to build 25% of a wall. We know he can build 100% of a wall in 6 days, so dividing 6 days by 4 will give us our answer.

6/4 = 3/2 = 1.5 days

It took the apprentice 1.5 days to finish the wall.
