For the first question, divide 32 by 40 and it should equal .8 miles. Then, for the second question, multiply .8 by 13 and it should equal 10.4 miles.
Answer:
*See below*
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Identify and Explain Error</u>
The method shown is using fractions to compare costs. This strategy does not work due to the fact that they have not factored in the $55 he pays for the car before hand. Also, 150 divided by 0.5 does not equal 30, it equals 300 so, even if he did not pay $55 beforehand, the equation is still incorrect.
<u>Correct Work/Solution</u>
$55 to rent
$0.50 per mile
Let's start by removing $55 from $150 to see how many dollars is left over for gas.
150 - 55 = 95
Then, divide 95 by 0.5
95 ÷ 0.5 = 190
He can drive at least 190 miles.
<u>Share Strategy</u>
Since he starts off paying $55 dollars out of $150, we need to subtract $55 by $150 to see how much cash he has left over for mileage. $150 minus $55 equals $95 so, he has $95 left over for mileage. $95 will then be divided by $0.50 to find out how many miles he can drive. We are dividing by $0.50 because that's the cost per mile. $95 divided by $0.50 equals 190 so he can drive at least 190 miles.
