Ok, so first convert both the numbers to improper fractions. (Multiply the denominator of the fraction by the whole number and add the numerator of the fraction)
Then keep the first number the same, change the division symbol to a multiplication symbol and use the reciprocal of the second number. (flip the numbers so that the denominator becomes the numerator and the numerator becomes the denominator.)
Then simply multiply across.
Answer:
12.6 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
A=(1/2)bh

Answer:
Yes, look at the explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
- Calculate how many miles a car can drive with 1 gallon: 285 miles ÷ 10 = 28.5 miles with one gallon
- Divide 500 by 28.5 to calculate how many gallons are needed: 500 ÷ 28.5 ≈ 17.543 - Therefore yes, it is possible because the car uses about 17.543 gallons of gasoline for 500 miles.
