Answer:300:10 = 30:1
30 miles per gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1) 30:1
2) 30:1
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
Miles-Gas(Gallons): 30 - 1 , 60 - 2 , 90 - 3 , 120 - 4 , 150 - 5 , 180 - 6 , 210 - 7 , 240 - 8 , 270 - 9 , 300 - 10
1) We have to find the ratio of the given problem.
[tex]Ratio = \displaystyle\frac{Miles}{Gallon}[/tex]
[tex]= \displaystyle\frac{300}{10}\\\\=\frac{30}{1}\\\\=30:1[/tex]
The ratio is 30:1 and it can be read as 30 miles per gallon of gas which means the car covers a distance of 30 miles in 1 gallon of gas.
2) If we divide the obtained ration by the second quantity of ratio, then,
[tex]\dispkastyle\frac{\frac{300}{10}}{\frac{10}{10}} = \frac{30}{1} = 30:1[/tex]
The new ratio is 30:1.
This ration is in proportion, when two ratios are equal thy are said to be in proportion.
