(HELP) My Subaru Crosstrek can travel 107 miles on 3 gallons of gas. How many miles can my
car travel on a full tank of gas? A full tank of gas is 14 gallons.

Respuesta :

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  499 1/3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent the number of miles the car can travel on 14 gallons. We assume distance is proportional to gas usage, so ...

  m/14 = 107/3

Multiplying by 14, we have ...

  m = 14(107/3) = 1498/3 = 499 1/3

The car can travel 499 1/3 miles on a full tank of gas.
