8. Mylie's family car has a 14 gallon gas tank. The car uses about 0.5 gallons of gas each day. A warning light comes on when the fuel left in the tank is 1.5 gallons or less.
a. If Mylie's family starts with a full tank (14 gallons), can they drive the car for 15 days with out the warning light
coming on? Explain how you know

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Mylie's car has 14 gallons of gas. But if we use 0.5 a day we should figure out how many days she can use it. 14*2=28. 28-15 is 13 which is above 1.5.

step-by-step explanation:

you divide the denominator by the numerator on both sides and if the quotients are equal then the fractions are equivalent

this is false ^.^ lol
