at a speed of 50 miles per hour , a certain car uses 1 gallon of gasoline every 30 miles . if the car starts with a full 15 gallon tank of gasoline and travels for 5 hours at 50 miles per hour , the amount of gasoline used would be what fraction of a full tank ?
gas used = ( 5 hours ) * ( 50 miles / hour ) * ( 1 gallon / 30 miles ) = 8 + 1 / 3 gallons portion used = ( 8 + 1 / 3 ) / 15 = 5 / 9 ans c
divide(divide(multiply(50, 5), 30), 15)
