If Logan's family can drive 23 1/8 miles on 1 gallon of gas, how far can they drive on 17 gallons?

393 1/8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance driven in 1 gallon of gas  = 23  1/8 miles

23  1/8 miles is mixed fraction.

converting 23  1/8 into improper fraction

23  1/8 = (23*8 + 1)/8 = 185/8

Thus 1 gallon of gas can drive 185/8  miles. 1

Since distance for 17 gallons is needed.

we multiply both gallon of gas and distance with 17.

1 *17 gallon of gas can drive 185/8*17  miles

17 gallon of gas can drive (185/8)*17  miles

=>17 gallon of gas can drive (3,145)/8 miles

converting (3,145)/8  miles into mixed fraction we have 393 1/8 .

Thus,  Logan's family can drive 393 1/8 miles on 17 gallons.

the answer to this question is 3/19
