you have $30 to spend on gas for your vehicle this week. if gas costs $2.42 per gallon, how many gallons of gas can you buy? round your answer to the nearest gallon.

you can get 12 gallons on gas

Step-by-step explanation:

x/30=1/2.42

step 1) cross multiply

x * 2.42 = 1 * 30

2.42x=30

step 2) divide both sides by 2.42

2.42x/2.42 = 30/2.42

= 12.396694

round to the nearest gallon

≈12 gallons

$53.50

step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract the amount of money chuck earned ($72.50) by the cost of the gas for the mower ($11.25) and the new string for the trimmer he bought ($7.75).

72.50-11.25=61.25

and then subtract $61.25 by the second thing he bought (the new string for the trimmer)

61.25-7.75=53.5

so in total it's $53.50 (53 dollars and 50 cents)
