Martin and three of his friends take turns driving on a trip. the gas mileage for their car ranges from 28.94 to 24.56 miles per gallon. each friend drives between 58 and 64 miles, so martin estimates they will need about 7 gallons of fuel for their trip. is this a reasonable estimate?

a. no, the estimate should be higher.
b. no, the estimate should be lower.

A. No, the estimate should be higher

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the maximum number of gallons of fuel the car can consume, we express this as;

Maximum miles driven=highest consumption per gallon×Maximum gallons

where;

Maximum miles driven per person=64 mile

Maximum miles driven=64×4=256 miles

highest consumption per gallon=24.56 miles per gallon

Maximum gallons=g

replacing;

256=24.56×g

24.56 g=256

g≥256/24.56=10.42 gallons

g≥10.42 gallons

No, the estimate should be higher

first one is a: renaming a fraction. second one is c: de-c
