2 gallons because 65/5 is 13 and if you divide 26/13 it’s 2 so 2 would be your answer

Answer:

Hank's truck will need 2.32 gallons of gas to travel 26 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Hank's truck can travel 65 miles on 5 gallons of gas.

if we want to know how many gallons we need to travel 26 we have to see how much is the ratio between 65 and 26

56 * x = 26

x = 26/56

x = 13/28

now we have to multiply that value on both sides to find out how many gallons of gas he spends for 26 miles

56 mi = 5 gal

56 mi * 13/28 = 5gal * 13/28

26 mi = 2.32gal

Hank's truck will need 2.32 gallons of gas to travel 26 miles
