1. A family paid $23.25 for 3 movie tickets. At that rate, could the family use a $100 gift certificate to buy 12 tickets?

2. Edd’s car used 12 gallons of gas on a 300 mile trip. Sophia’s car used 5 gallons of gas on a 140 mile trip. Whose car got more miles per gallon?

1. No, they can not use a $100 gift certificate to buy 12. tickets.

32.25÷3=7.75
7.75 × 12 =93

2.
Edd's car: 25 miles with one gallon
300÷12

Sophia' s car: 28 miles with one gallon
140÷5
Sophias car has more miles per gallon



Hope this helps!
