Each taxi travels 7 kilometers more than each car.
\n" ); document.write( "Together, the 5 taxis travel \"+7%2A5+=+35+\" mi more than
\n" ); document.write( "the 4 cars
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Let \"+d+\" = the distance traveled by the 4 cars
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d+%2B+d+%2B+35+=+125+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+2d+=+90+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d+=+45+\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d+%2B+35+=+80+\"
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "For the 4 cars:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+45%2A%28+1%2F10+%29+=+4.5+\" liters
\n" ); document.write( "The cars use 4.5 liters of gas in 1 day
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "I'm not sure about the wording of th last sentence.
\n" ); document.write( "\"How much gas do THE CARS use in a day if THEY use
\n" ); document.write( "1 liter of gas for every 10 kilometers traveled?\"
\n" ); document.write( "All 4 cars together?
\n" ); document.write( "Just 1 car?
\n" ); document.write( "I solved it for all 4 cars together
\n" ); document.write( "You might want another opinion
