Question

Mr. Loza had to stop at 7-Eleven for gas on his way to school. He bought four gallons of gasoline for $16.80. How much is the price per gallon?
1. Explain how you find your answer and what that unit rate means.

2. How many gallons could he get for $40?

Answer 1

$16.80 x 4 = $67.20

I mutiply 16.80 and 4 and I got 67.20.

And he could get 2 gallons for $40 because that will equal $33.60.

Sorry if im wrong.

Answer 2

Answer:

Every gallon costs $4.20

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide the money he spent and the gallons he needed, you come up with a total price of $4.20 a gallon. For the amounts of gallons he could get with $40 bucks, he would have 9.5 gallons, as you just need to divide 40 by 4.2. I hope this helps :)
