Hi there! Thanks for asking a question here on Brainly.
█ Explanation █
✦ Let's set up a proportion to solve this problem.
✦ [tex] \frac{220miles}{10gallons} = \frac{550 miles}{xgallons} [/tex]
✦ Cross multiply to solve the proportion.
✦ [tex]220x=5550[/tex]
✦ Next, we'll need to divide both sides by 220.
✦ [tex]x=25[/tex]
So we'll need 25 gallons of gas when we travel 550 miles.
Hope that helps! ★ If you have further questions about this question or need more help, feel free to comment below or leave me a PM. -UnicornFudge aka Nadia
