Answer:
$2.81
Step-by-step explanation:
1.25 is 100% of the price
125% + 100% = 225%
x = price by august
x = 225% (1.25)
225% = 2.25
2.25(1.25) = 2.8125 ≈ $2.81
Another way to see it:
=
225(1.25) / 100 = 2.8125
Answer:
$11.10 per gallon.
There are 4 quarts in a gallon so the cost of a gallon of oil currently is 1.85×4=$7.40
If the gallon price of oil goes up 50% then our answer is: 7.40×==11.1
The price of oil in March will be $11.10 per gallon
