Answer:
329 miles
Explanation:
We can write a ratio to solve
70.5 miles x miles
--------------- = ------------
3 gallons 14 gallons
Using cross products
70.5 * 14 = 3x
987=3x
Divide each side by 3
987/3 = 3x/3
329=x
Create a proportion where x is the distance the car can travel on 14 gallons of gas:
=
Cross multiply and solve for x:
3x = 987
x = 329
So, the car can travel 329 miles on 14 gallons of gas
