First, let's make 1/2 and 3/7 have the same denominator to make it easier to see. We know that there Least Common Multiple (LCM) is 14.

1/2=7/14

3/7=6/14

Wait a second... 3/7 is less than 1/2. This means that Winnie's statement is false because it is impossible that after adding more flour, she actually has less flour than what she started with.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer: <u>Madison can travel 2.2 miles less than Anthony on one gallon of gas.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation y = 39.1x represents the number of miles, y, that madison can drive her car for every x gallons of gas.

Question: Madison can travel _ miles _ than Anthony on one gallon of gas.

Lets find how much Madison travels on 1 gallon of gas.

39.1(1) = 39.1

Therefore, Madison travels 39.1 miles on one gallon of gas.

Now lets solve for Anthony

Anthony travels 380.7 miles on 9 gallons of gas.

Therefore we can set up the equation:

9x = 380.7 to show that 9 gallons equates to 380.7 miles

to solve divide 9 from both sides

\frac{9x}{9} =\frac{380.7}{9}

x = 41.3

So, Anthony travels 41.3 miles on one gallon of gas

Now find whether Madison travels more or less than Anthony on one gallon.

39.1 - 41.3 = -2.2

This means that Anthony can travel 2.2 miles more than Madison.


For your answer, this means that:

<u>Madison can travel 2.2 miles less than Anthony on one gallon of gas</u>

<u></u>

<em>Hope this helped and have a nice day :)</em>
