Randy is driving from New Jersey to Florida. Every time Randy stops for gas, he records the distance he traveled in miles and the total number of gallons he used.
Assume that the number of miles driven is proportional to the number of gallons consumed in order to complete the table.

Since it is proportional, then every ratio comparing miles driven to gallons consumed must be equal. Using the given values for each quantity, the value of the ratio is
54/2= 27  216/8=27
