Bill filled the tank of his car with 12 gallons of gas. The tank immediately sprang a leak. Bill drove at 50 miles per hour and ran out of gas 4 hours later. His car gets 25 miles per gallon.
How much gas did Bill lose?
Answer:
4 gallons ....... 50 mph for 4 hours = 200 miles.
At 25m/gal. = 8 gallons. 12 - 8 = 4
