Answer 1

Answer:

$x=1426.22$ mi/month

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the average distance.

Given:

Jones drove his car 12836 miles in 9 months.

We need to find the average distance he drove per month?

Solution:

We find the average distance per month by dividing the total distance and time

The average distance per month = $\frac{Total\ distance}{Time}$

$x = \frac{d}{t}$

Total distance d = 12836 miles

Time t = 9 month

$x=\frac{12836}{9}$

$x=1426.22$ mi/month

Therefore, Mr. Jones drove his car 1426.22 miles per month.
