Answer 1

To determine how much oil Randi will need for 8 gallons of gas, we can use the given ratio of 5 gallons of gas for every 2 gallons of oil.

First, let's find the number of oil gallons that correspond to 8 gallons of gas.
8 gallons of gas * (2 gallons of oil / 5 gallons of gas) = 3.2 gallons of oil

Therefore, Randi will need approximately 3.2 gallons of oil for 8 gallons of gas, rounded to the nearest tenth.
