1. \(\frac{L}{Gallon}\) when raveling with speed \(\frac{40miles}{hour}\)
2. \(\frac{8L}{10Gallon}\) when raveling with speed \(\frac{60miles}{hour}\)
Question stem: what is "Time" traveled on 1 gallon with speed 40 and 60 miles/hour respectively?
Distance = Rate * Gallon
1. Distance = \(\frac{L}{Gallon}\) * 1 Gallon= L
Time = \(\frac{Distance }{Rate }\) = \(\frac{L}{40}\)
2. Distance = \(\frac{0.8L}{Gallon}\) * 1 Gallon= \(\frac{8L}{10}\)
Time = \(\frac{Distance }{Rate }\) = \(\frac{8L}{10*60}\)=\(\frac{L}{75}\)
2. \(\frac{8L}{10Gallon}\) when raveling with speed \(\frac{60miles}{hour}\)

In 1 gallon, miles travelled is L
And distance covered is 40 miles in 1 hour,
So L miles is travelled in 1/40*L hour
Similarly ,when travelling at 60 miles per hour,
Hour needed to travel 0.8L is 0.8L/60=L/75
