Answer:

575 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion where x is the distance traveled on 11.5 gallons of gas:

[tex]\frac{300}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{11.5}[/tex]

Cross multiply and solve for x:

6x = 11.5(300)

6x = 3450

x = 575

So, the car would travel 575 miles

Answer:

575 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

First we are going to find out how much gasoline the hybrid car uses per mile.

to do this we are going to divide 300 by 6.

[tex]\frac{300}{6}[/tex] = 50 mi

∴ For every 50 miles 1 gallon of gas is used. This can be represented as 1:50 or [tex]\frac{1}{50}[/tex].

To find the distance that 11.5 gallon of gas would be used we are going to multiply 50 by 11.5.

50 × 11.5 = 575 mi
