Question

car traveled at an average speed of 80 miles per hour for 3 hours and consumed fuel at a rate of 34 miles per gallon. Approximately how many gallons of fuel did the car use for the entire 3-hour trip?

Answer 1

To find the answer, times 80 by 3 (240 miles). Then, 34 times 7 = 238, which means you would end up with a mixed number (238 2/34.) Hope this helps :)
