1. Start by identifying what the question wants so we are looking for miles per 1 gallon.
2. Set up a statement. When the word “per” is being used it relates to a fraction or a ratio. In this question we need to find how many miles a single gallon will give us. So set it up as miles/gallons
3. Plug in your numbers. Now our statement is 13 miles/15 gallons
4. Calculate. So do 13/15 which equals 0.86 miles per 1 gallon.
Tip: always add in words into your calculations. Mainly the units you are using so you can quickly look and know what the units will be. This will help you in upper placement math as well
As it says he keeps 'pairs' of shoes so the answer has to be an even 'number' - ie B, C and E are all possible answers.

Answer:
x=-52/29
Step-by-step explanation:
-3(42x+46)=-15(-22-9x)
-126x-138=330+135x
-126x-135x-138=330
-261x-138=330
-261x=330+138
-261x=468
x=468/-261
x=-52/29
Area of the shaded region to be covered with grass is 204 yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Area of the shaded region can be found by finding the total area and subtracting the area of the lap pool.
Total area = Area of the trapezium = 1/2 × (Sum of parallel sides) × distance between them
Sum of parallel sides = 25 yd + (3 + 12) = 40 yd
Distance between them = 12 yd
⇒ Total area = 1/2 × 40 × 12 = 240 yd²
- Step 2: Find the area of the lap pool.
Area = length × width = 12 × 3 = 36 yd²
- Step 3: Find the area of the shaded region
Area to be covered with grass = 240 - 36 = 204 yd²
