Use ratio tables and double number lines to solve missing-value and scaling problems.

Choose a smart table or number-line strategy

Problem

A miles-to-gallons line includes \((4,1.5)\), \((8,3)\), \((16,6)\), and \((20,?)\). Consider these methods: A, start at \(16\) and add \(\text{one}~4\text{-}\text{mile}~\text{jump}\); B, scale to \(1~\text{mile}\) but stop before scaling back to \(20~\text{miles}\); C, jump from \(8~\text{to}~24\). Choose the method that works, then calculate the gallons for \(20~\text{miles}\).
