On a recent trip mrs. patel drove 700 miles on 20 gallons of gas how many miles per gallon? Did her car use?

Answer 1

To find the miles per gallon that Mrs. Patel's car achieved, we need to divide the total miles driven by the total gallons of gas used.

Miles per gallon = Total miles driven / Total gallons of gas used

Given that Mrs. Patel drove 700 miles on 20 gallons of gas, we can substitute these values into the formula:

Miles per gallon = 700 miles / 20 gallons

The calculation gives us:

Miles per gallon = 35 miles/gallon

Therefore, Mrs. Patel's car achieved 35 miles per gallon.
