Question

a car gets 27 miles per gallon in the city and 35 miles per gallon on the highway. what range of miles can the car travel on 3 gallons of gas​

Answer 1

The answer is 81 < < 105

Explanation: Since the car gets 27 mpg in the city and gets 35 mpg on the highway, you can set it up in the inequality 27 < < 35 and this represents the range a car can drive for 1 gallon, so to find the range for 3 gallons, you multiply this inequality by 3.

27(3)<<35(3)
27(3)=81
35(3)=105

Then you can insert the numbers into the inequality to get 81<<105.
