3. The car you are taking is reliable and in good
condition. The insurance is paid, the maintenance is up
to date, and it gets about 27 miles to the gallon. The
gas tank holds 18.5 gallons, and the low gas light will
turn on when there are 2.5 gallons left in the tank. You
have saved up $1,264 to spend on these trips. You
must get gas if your low gas light turns on. The average
gas price in Oregon right now is $3.20 a gallon.

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal
