The expression 12g12g12, g gives the number of kilometers a car can travel using ggg liters of gasoline. How far can this car travel on 5 \dfrac125 2 1 ​ 5, start fraction, 1, divided by, 2, end fraction liters of gasoline?
Answer: The car can travel 66 miles using 5.5 liters of gasoline
Explanation: We are given that: The expression 12*g is used to evaluate the number of miles the car can travel using g liters of gasoline. Therefore: miles = 12*g
Now, we are given that the liters of gasoline = 5[tex] \frac{1}{2} [/tex] = 5.5 liters. To get the number of miles, all we have to do is substitute with the given liters in the above expression as follows: miles = 12*g miles = 12 * 5.5 miles = 66 miles
