Answer 1

6 miles

Explanation:

6 times 4 = 24

Answer 2

10 mph, 1 5/9

Explanation:

Set up a ratio:

4/24 = x/60

Cross multiply and solve

4 * 60 = 24x

240 = 24x

10 = x, 10 mph

10 gallons every 45 days is ever 6 3/7 weeks

10 divided by 6 3/7

10 divided by 45/7=

10 times 7/45 = 70/45, = 14/9 = 1 5/9
