Question

Patricia can drive 36 kilometers for every 3 liters of gas she puts in her car.

Answer 1

The missing value is 132.

Explanation:

Consider the complete question is "Patricia can drive 363636 kilometers for every 333 liters of gas she puts in her car. Complete the table using equivalent ratios. "

Kilometers Liters

36 3

48 4

?? 11

Let the missing value be x.

It is given that Patricia can drive 36 kilometers for every 3 liters of gas.

3 Liters = 36 kilometers

`(kilometer)/(liter)=(36)/(3)`

11 liters = x kilometers

`(kilometer)/(liter)=(x)/(11)`

Equate both ratios.

`(x)/(11)=(36)/(3)`

`(x)/(11)=12`

Multiply both sides by 11.

`x=12* 11`

`x=132`

Therefore, the missing value is 132.
