London owns a hybrid SUV that can travel 400 miles on a 15 gallon tank of gas. Determine how many miles he can travel on 6 gallons

Steps:

*Find the unit rate*

1) 400/15 = 26.6666667

* Multiply it by 6*

2) 26.6666667 * 6 = 160

So, the SUV will travel 160 miles on 6 gallons.

The answer is real simple ... First you divide 400 by 15 and get an answer of 26.67. That is how many miles in a gallon. Now multiply that with 6 and you get an answer of 160.02 miles
