Question

A speedboat can travel 24 miles on 3 gallons of

gas. How many miles could the boat travel on 12 gallons of gas?

Thank you if you answer

Answer 1

96 miles

Explanation:

3 multiplied by what gives you 24?

8 right?

So, what you want to do is 8 multiplied by 12.

Doing so you will reach the conclusion that 12 multiplied by 8 equals 96.

So you can go 96 miles on a speedboat with 12 gallons of gas.

I hope this helped you :)
