Multiplying 37.4 x 0.7 gives you answer less than 37.4 because....

There is one decimal point in 37.4 and one decimal point in 0.7

When multiplied you have to move the decimal point TWO times.

As you move the decimal point to the left the value decreses.

Hope I helped!

If a car can drive 62 miles on 3 gallons of gas, how many gallons of gas will it use to travel 231 miles?

aksik [14]

Answer:

11 gallons of gas is needed to travel 231 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion for this problem.

<em>For every 62 miles, you use 3 gallons of gas. </em>

$\frac{62}{3}*\frac{231}{?}$

Now, let's cross multiply.

$\frac{693}{62}$ ≈ $11$

So, you will need about 11 gallons of gas to travel 231 miles.
