does John's car get?

Respuesta :

Answer:

18.472 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]166.25 \: miles = 9 \: gallons \\ x \: miles = 1 \: gallons[/tex]

Cross Multiply

[tex]9x = 166.25[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 9

[tex] \frac{9x}{9} = \frac{166.25}{9} [/tex]

[tex]x = 18.472[/tex]

Answer:

[tex] \boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{18.472 \: miles}}}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance travelled = 166.25 miles

gallons of gas used = 9 gallons

To find : 1 gallons of gas = ? miles

In unitary method, we have to obtain unit quantity. So, to find the distance travelled using 1 gallons of gas, 166.25 is divided by 9

[tex] \sf{ \frac{166.25}{9} }[/tex]

[tex] \dashrightarrow{ \sf{18.472 \: miles}}[/tex]
