Question

A truck traveled 130 miles using 4 gallons of diesel fuel. What distance would the same truck cover using 6.7 gallons of diesel fuel?

Answer 1

217.75

Explanation:

Divide the distance traveled by the gallons used. This will give you the distance that can be traveled using one gallon.

130/4 = 32.5

Now, multiply this value by 6.7 to find the distance that can be covered.

6.7 × 32.5 = 217.75
