Amotorist is pumping gas into his car at a rate of 5/12 of a gallon every 1/24 of a minute. at this rate, how many gallons of gas will he have pumped into his car in 1.5 of a minute? 1 5 10 20

At this rate, the motorist would have pumped 15 gallons into his car.

In order to find this, we first have to find the amount of gallons per minute. To do this, we divide the number of gallons given to the number of minutes given.

5/12 gallons / 1/24 minutes = 10 gallons per minute.

Now we multiply that amount by the amount of minutes pumping gas.

10 gallons per minute * 1.5 minutes = 15 gallons.

unless you made a typo, the answers are both a and c.

step-by-step explanation:

1.5/3 is .5 whereas 3/9 is .3333333 not proportional

22/33 is .66666 and 4/6 is also .66666 proportional

2/4 is .5 whereas 142/213 is .66666 not proportional

14/7 is 2 and 7/3.5 is also 2 proportional

you could've also checked it by doing this simple division:

if the larger fraction divides with the smaller fraction to equal 1, it is proportional. so let me show you what i mean:

when i divide 22/33 by 4/6 i get 1, so we know it is proportional, and it is the same with 14/7 and 7/3.5. now if i divide 3/9 by 1.5/3 i get .66666 so therefore we know it is not proportional.

there are many ways to do this so i wanted to show you some possible ways.

i would love   to but there is no graph shown

i am so sorry
