If Mrs W put one gallon in her tank, she could only go 14.4 miles
but
If Mr W put one gallon in his tank he could go 15 miles.
Mr W wins as you pointed out.
Okie
If its not too much trouble can you check the awnser to another question please?
Stephen read a 90-page book in 6 days. If he continues reading at that rate, how long will it take him to read a 300-page book?
90 ÷ 6 = 15 pages a day
300 ÷ 15 = 20 days
It will take Stephen 20 days to read a 300-page book if he continues reading at the same rate, 15 pages a day.
That is not another problem. It is the same problem with different nouns and numbers
90 pages/6 days = 15 pages /1 day or 1 day/15 pages
300 pages * 1 day/ 15 pages = 20 days
Okie, Thank you so much :3
25 dowhisles/ 5 elephants = 5 dowhisles /1 elephant or 1 elephant/ 5 dowhisles
555 dowhisles * 1 elephant/5 dowhisles = 111 elephants
the dowhisles cancelled
50 elephants * 5 dowhisles/1 elephant = 250 dowhisless
the elephantscancelled
To find the mileage per gallon for each car, you need to divide the number of miles driven by the number of gallons of gas used.
a. For Mrs. Walters's car:
To find the mileage per gallon, divide the number of miles driven (360) by the number of gallons of gas used (25).
So, the mileage per gallon for Mrs. Walters's car is 360 ÷ 25 = 14.4 miles per gallon.
b. For Mr. Walters's car:
To find the mileage per gallon, divide the number of miles driven (480) by the number of gallons of gas used (32).
So, the mileage per gallon for Mr. Walters's car is 480 ÷ 32 = 15 miles per gallon.
c. Comparing the mileage per gallon:
Based on the calculations, Mr. Walters's car has a higher mileage per gallon (15 miles per gallon) compared to Mrs. Walters's car (14.4 miles per gallon). Therefore, Mr. Walters's car is getting better mileage per gallon.
So, your answers are correct. Well done!
