Answer: 1/4 full.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking for how much gas will be left in the tank after 2/3 of the gas in the tank is used.
There is currently 3/4 of the tank remaining.
To find 2/3 of 3/4, you can multiply the fractions together.
Do this by multiplying both numerators and both denominators:
Then, subtract 6/12 from 3/4. You can do this by simplifying the first fraction to 2/4 (divide both the numerator and denominator by 3).
3/4 - 2/4 = 1/4
There will be 1/4 of the tank left.
Let's assume time taken by plane on one way distance as 't'
The total flying time in both directions was 10.5 hr
so, time taken in other direction =10.5-t
now, we are given
A plane averaged 500 mph on a trip going east
so, total distance of one way is
total distance of other way is
now, we can that distance is same from both sides
so, we get
now, we can solve for t
now, we can find one way distance
