Answer 1

To find out how far the truck could drive with 7 gallons of gasoline, we can set up a proportion:

120 miles / 5 gallons = x miles / 7 gallons

Solving for x, we have:

x = (120 miles * 7 gallons) / 5 gallons = 840 miles

Therefore, the truck could drive 840 miles with 7 gallons of gasoline.
