Mr. green drove 12 hours at a speed of 55 miles per hour if his car covered 22 miles for each gallon of gas used how many gallons of gas did use

Hey there Bmari874!

So, we do, 22+22= 44. So, so far, Mr.Green has covered 44 miles with 2 gallons.

There are now 8 more miles, and we need to find how much gas does he use for the rest of the 8 miles.

We need to find what is 14 percent of 1. We have to do this because we did (22-8). Because, each gallon has 22 miles, right? And for this, we do how much he has left, and then we just subtract those both.

Now, we need to find the percentage of 8 going into 1.

This would be 800% left.

I believe that the answer should be 0.800 more gas.

Hope this helps you!

Mr.Green used 2.5 gallons

1.17+3.99a. you combine the terms with a to create 3.99 and the 1.17 stays because it has no like terms or a variable
