Answer:
25 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming miles-per-gallon is a constant, the amount of gas is proportional to the miles driven:
gallons/(500 mi) = (13 gal)/(260 mi)
gallons = (500 mi)/(260 mi)(13 gal) . . . . multiply by 500 mi
gallons = 25 gal . . . . do the arithmetic
The van will need 25 gallons of gas to go 500 miles.
-10.6, and 9/10, are the constants
Answer:
The remainder is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
12 Divided by 7 equals 12 over 7 or 1.714285. 7 can only go into 12, one time. if we subtract 7 from 12 we get 5 which is the remainder. There is no way it can be 2 because 7 plus 2 equals 9. 1 x 7 + 5 equals 12 which isn't 1.714285. 2 x 7 + 4 equals 18 which also isn't 1.714285. Same with 2 x 5 + 5. That equals 15 which isn't 1.714285.
