Question

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 point)
 miles per gallon

Answer 1

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

Number of miles = 288
Number of gallons = 16

Unit rate = Number of miles / Number of gallons
Unit rate = 288 miles / 16 gallons
Unit rate = 18 miles/gallon

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