2-116.

Mr. Wallis has done it again! He has started to create more tables to help him figure out things like how many gallons of gas it takes to travel a certain number of miles or how many minutes it takes to walk a certain number of blocks. Use proportional reasoning to complete his tables below.

1.  # of Books Days $2$ $10$ $10$ $50$ $60$ $3$ $1$ $\frac { 1 } { 5 }$ $365$

How many days does it take to read 1 book?

Multiply that by the number of days to find the number of books read.

 # of Books Days $2$ $10$ $10$ $50$ $\color{red}{12}$ $60$ $3$ $1$ $\color{red}{5}$ $\frac { 1 } { 5 }$ $365$
1.  Minutes Blocks $10$ $25$ $5$ $12.5$ 1 $20$ $30$ $0$ $35$

Follow the steps in part (a) to complete part (b) and (c).

 Minutes Blocks $10$ $25$ $5$ $12.5$ $1$ $20$ $\color{red}{50}$ $30$ $\color{red}{0}$ $0$ $35$
1.  Miles Gallons $280$ $14$ $140$ $7$ $21$ $20$ $100$ $1000$ $17.5$
