Using the principle of proportionality, the number of gallons of gas required to cyber a 160 mile trip will be 10 gallons

Given that :

  • 6 gallon will cover 96 miles

Setting up a proportional equation thus :

6 = 96

g = 160

Cross multiply

96g = 160 × 6

96g = 960

g = 960 ÷ 96

g = 10

Therefore, 10 gallons of gas will be required.
