How do I do tgis fractions math problem?


During a 258 mile trip, a car used 10 3/4 gallons of gas. How many miles would we expect the ccar to travel on 1 gallon of gas?
>>
Probably bait since it's really easy math, but miles per gallon= miles travelled divided by gallons of gas used.
Therefore its just 258/10.75 (3/4=.75) which comes out to 24 miles for 1 gallon of gas

258 divided by 10.75
To get rid of the decimal, multiply both sides by 100 (It comes out the same)
25800 divided by 1075 =

The basic rule there, just to make it clear, is that if you do the same thing to both numbers, the relationship remains the same. If 1 is 1/2 of 2, then multiply both sides by 5 and 5 is still 1/2 of 10 (It only works with multiplication and division, though. If you add, say, 5 to each number, the ratio is not the same - 1+5 is not half of 2+5)
