Yesterday, Jack drove 33 and one half miles. He used 1 and one fourth gallons of gasoline. What is the unit rate for miles per​ gallon?

Respuesta :

change the mixed numbers to improper fractions

33 1/2 = (2*33 + 1)/2  = 67/2

1 1/4 = (4*1 + 1)/4 = 5/4

67/2 divided by 5/4

copy dot flip

67/2 * 4/5

268/10

divide by 2

134/5

     5*26 = 130   134-130 = 4

26 4/5
