X/8 + 12 = 16
start by subtracting twelve from both sides
x/8 + 12 = 16
- 12 -12
You're left with x/8 = 4
Multiply both sides by 8
8× x/8 = 4 ×8
Your answer is x = 32
If you need to simplify, the answer is 2.
Set up a ratio of known to unknown:
Let X = the amount of gas needed for 500 miles:
220/12 = 500/x
Cross multiply:
220x = 6000
Divide both sides by 220:
X = 6000 / 220
x = 27.27 gallons (round answer as needed).

Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, you got a Quadrilateral with the side lengths 6, 9, 9, 12
The shortest of B is 2
Find the scale factor of the A to B
6 -> 2
6/2 = 3
Scale factor is 3
Now divide all the sides by scale factor
6/3, 9/3, 9/3, 12/3 = 2, 3, 3, 4
Add them all together to get the perimeter
2+3+3+4 = 12
Perimeter of B is 12
A mixed number is a combination of a whole number and a fraction, so in this case we have 8 as the whole part and 0.45 as the fraction, 0.45 is equal to 45/100, and that fraction can be simplified as well, lets see:
8.45 = 8 45/100
= 8 9/20
