On 5 successive days a deliveryman listed his mileage as follows: 135, 162, 98, 117, 216. if his truck averages 14 miles for each gallon used, how many gallons of gas did he use during these 5 days?
can someone tell me the fastest way to work it out on paper? i have a test comming up %26amp; its timed %26amp; i cant use a calculator :( ughh.Can someone please help me with this word problem, i can do it on a calculator - but not on paper :(?
Add them all up and divide by 14.
135+162+98+117+216=728
728/14=52
So 52 gallons.Can someone please help me with this word problem, i can do it on a calculator - but not on paper :(?
