Answer: Each pitcher has 4 quarts of lemonade.
Step-by-step explanation:
Louis made 24 quarts of lemonade, and he divided it equally into 6 pitchers.
Then, each pitcher must has a sixt of the total amount of lemonade, this is:
p = (1/6)*24 quarts= (24/6) quarts = 4 quarts
Each pitcher has 4 quarts of lemonade.
You want to know the factor by which 3 2/3 is multiplied to get 7 1/3.
1. You can estimate that it is 2 from 7/3 ≈ 2, then check by multiplication to see if that is right.
.. 2*(3 2/3) = 6 4/3 = 7 1/3 . . . . 2 is the correct factor.
2. You can divide 7 1/3 by 3 2/3 to see what the factor is.
.. (7 1/3)/(3 2/3) = (22/3)/(11/3) = 22/11 = 2 . . . . 2 is the factor Earl used.
3. You could see how many times you can subtract 3 2/3 from 7 1/3.
.. 7 1/3 -3 2/3 = (7 -3) +(1/3 -2/3) = 4 -1/3 = 3 2/3 . . . . . subtracting once gives 3 2/3
.. 3 2/3 -3 2/3 = 0 . . . . . . subtracting twice gives 0, so the factor is 2.
4. You could add 3 2/3 to see how many times it takes to get 7 1/3.
.. 3 2/3 +3 2/3 = (3 +3) +(2/3 +2/3) = 6 +4/3 = 7 1/3
We only need to add two values of 3 2/3 to get 7 1/3, so the factor is 2.

Answer:
See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the natural number 
If 
is the natural number, then 
are next two natural numbers, so numbers 
and 
are three consecutive numbers.
Given three consecutive natural numbers, one of them is always even number and one of them is always multiple of 3, so the product
is divisible by 6.
Divide them both ways.
250 / 8 = 31.25 miles per gallon
8 / 250 = 0.032 gallons per mile
