Valerie buys a new car she can drive 288 miles on a full tank of gas. If her car holds 16 gallons of gasoline what is the unit rate of miles per gallon

1 answer

To find the unit rate of miles per gallon, divide the number of miles by the number of gallons.

288 miles / 16 gallons = <<288/16=18>>18 miles per gallon

So, the unit rate of miles per gallon is 18 miles per gallon.
