Answer:

10 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

84 ÷ 6.5 =12.9(The unit rate.)

Seeing as one gallon can get you 12.9 miles;

126÷12.9=9.7

So the answers 9.7 gallons, but if you need to round, then 10 to get a whole number.

Answer:

9.75

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a ratio to solve

84 miles          126 miles

--------------   = -------------------

6.5 gallons        x gallons

Using cross products

84 x = 6.5 * 126

84x=819

84x/84 = 819/84

x = 9.75
