Question

If your car gets 22 miles per​ gallon, how much does it cost to drive 360 miles when gasoline costs ​$2.80 per​ gallon?

Answer 1

45.6

Explanation:

the way you find this would be

• 22/360 = 16.3
• 2.80 x 16.3 = 45.64
• But to get 45.6 you would have to round this answer to the nearest tenth
• 45.64 rounded to the nearest tenth would be 45.6
• Therefore your answer would be $45.6 per gallon

Answer 2

If you get 22 miles for 2.80 and you need 360 miles

22\360=?•2.80

22/360=16.3

2.80 • 16.3 = 45.6$

So it would cost 45.6$ to drive 360 miles
