A car travels 22 miles for every gallon of gasoline used. The table below represents this relationship. Gas Mileage Distance Tra
veled (miles) Gasoline Used (gallons) 22 1 44 2 x 3 88 4 Which equation correctly shows a pair of equivalent ratios that can be used to find the unknown? StartFraction 1 over 22 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 2 EndFraction StartFraction 22 over 1 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 2 EndFraction StartFraction 1 over 22 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 3 EndFraction StartFraction 22 over 1 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 3 EndFraction
Well <u><em>what you multiply by the top you must do the bottom and opposite way also goes</em></u>, sometimes so to get three as shown in (x/3) you must use the 1 from (22/1) times something to equal 3. In this it would be 1*3=3 so I multiplied three to the bottom and what I do the the bottom I haft to do to the top so 22*3=x and x is equal to 66 witch makes<u><em> (D. 22/1=x/3)</em></u> the correct option. <u>If you want or need to check a good way to is to use a calculator to multiply 22*3 just as a small check up.</u>
