Question

Ians car can go 296 miles on 8 gallons of gas. During a drive last weekend, ians used 7 gallons of gas. How far did he drive?

Answer 1

259 miles

Explanation:

To find this, we need to multiply his 8 gallons by
`(7)/(8)` since he only uses 7 gallons of gas. In turn, we also need to multiply 296 by
`(7)/(8)`. We get:

`296 * (7)/(8) = 37 * 7 = 259`

So, Ian drove 259 miles last weekend.

Hope this helped!
