Trey can drive his car 130 miles on 4 gallons of gas. At this rate, how many miles can Trey drive on 6 gallons of gas?
4/130 = 6/x
Cross multiply and solve for x.
To find out how many miles Trey can drive on 6 gallons of gas, we need to calculate the rate at which he drives.
The rate is given as 130 miles on 4 gallons of gas. This means Trey can drive 130 miles with 4 gallons of gas.
To find out how many miles he can drive with 1 gallon of gas, we need to divide 130 miles by 4 gallons:
130 miles / 4 gallons = 32.5 miles/gallon
Now that we know Trey can drive 32.5 miles with 1 gallon of gas, we can calculate how many miles he can drive with 6 gallons of gas:
32.5 miles/gallon * 6 gallons = 195 miles
Therefore, Trey can drive 195 miles on 6 gallons of gas.
