chart with columns: car, miles driven, gallons of gasoline used; rows: car 1 (300, 15), car 2 (450, 10), car 3 (250, 10), car 4 (350, 14)
which car could be driven the farthest on 1 gallon of gasoline?
a car 1
b car 2
c car 3
d car 4
question 2:
a bird flew 75 miles in 3 hours. at this rate, how far could the bird fly in 1 hour?
a 15 mph
b 25 mph
c 225 mph

Explanation:

Question 1:

Step1: Calculate miles per gallon for each car

For Car 1: $\frac{300}{15} = 20$ miles per gallon.
For Car 2: $\frac{450}{10} = 45$ miles per gallon.
For Car 3: $\frac{250}{10} = 25$ miles per gallon.
For Car 4: $\frac{350}{14} = 25$ miles per gallon.

Step2: Compare the values

Car 2 has the highest miles per gallon (45), meaning it can be driven the farthest on 1 gallon of gasoline.

To find the distance the bird can fly in 1 hour, we use the rate formula. The bird flies 75 miles in 3 hours, so the rate (speed) is $\frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}}$.

Step1: Calculate the speed

$\frac{75 \text{ miles}}{3 \text{ hours}} = 25$ miles per hour (mph).

Answer:

B. Car 2
