Answer this question:Kennedy's car can drive 19 miles per gallon of gas. She was able to drive 15 miles to school, 6 miles to the softball park, 2 miles to a burger restaurant, 4 miles to her friend's house, and 11 miles home before she ran out of gas. How many gallons of gas did she start with?
Kennedy drove 15 + 6 + 2 + 4 + 11 = 38 miles. She gets 19 miles per gallon of gas, so she started with 38 / 19 = 2 gallons of gas.

Answer this question:Every day Janet spends 8 minutes looking for her keys and another 3 minutes complaining after she finds them. If Janet stops losing her keys, how many minutes will she save every week?
First find the total time Janet spends looking for her key and complaining each day: 8 minutes / day + 3 minutes / day = 11 minutes / day. Then multiply that number by the number of days in a week to find the weekly time spent: 11 minutes / day * 7 days / week = 77 minutes.
The answer is 77.
