Answer:

9.75

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a ratio to solve

84 miles 126 miles

-------------- = -------------------

6.5 gallons x gallons

Using cross products

84 x = 6.5 * 126

84x=819

84x/84 = 819/84

x = 9.75

Answer:

10 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

84 ÷ 6.5 =12.9(The unit rate.)

Seeing as one gallon can get you 12.9 miles;

126÷12.9=9.7

So the answers 9.7 gallons, but if you need to round, then 10 to get a whole number.

The total cost is the number of cans times $.70

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Let's say that the number of cans= c.
And the total cost= t.

t=c.70
AKA
total cost= number of cans times .70.

You do this because each can is $.70. SO you do the number of cans times the price for one can, and that equals the total cost.
I hope I helped!
