Question

"My" family drives 225 miles each week and the car can travel 27 miles on one gallon of gasoline. How much gasoline does the car use in one year?

I got 8.33 (225 milesx 1 gallon/27 miles) Is this correct? Thanks for checking.

Answer 1

Not close. 8.33 gallons is how much gasoline the family uses in a week. Multiply that by 52 weeks in a year if you want to know the use in a full year.
