A crew must repave a road that is 3/8 miles long. They can repave 1/48 miles per hour. How long will it take the crew to repave the road

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 miles long, 1/48 miles per hour

3/8 and 1/48 can have a common denominator, so you make 3/8 into 18/48 by multiplying both the numerator and denmoinator by 6.

18/48 miles long

1/48 per hour

divide: 18/48 divided by 1/48, which turns into 18/48 x 48/1 which equals 18

18 hours

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal
