Question 126406: If you drove 100 miles on 5 gallons of gas, how many can you drive on 12 gallons?
Answer by apachemexican1(64) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
first you need to divide the amount
of miles driven by the gallons used.
100/5=20
then multiply the mpg (miles per gallon)
which in this case is 20, by the
number of miles in question, which is 12'
20*12=240
so you can drive 240 miles on 12 gallons of gas.
