To determine how many more miles per gallon Gabi can go if she uses gas from Good Gas for her car, we need to compare the number of miles driven for each gallon of gas for both brands.
For Go Gas:
Average miles driven per gallon: (5.5 + 10.2 + 12.0 + 14.5) / 4 = 11.8 miles per gallon
For Good Gas:
Average miles driven per gallon: (3.75 + 9.4 + 12.6 + 16.0) / 4 = 10.45 miles per gallon
Therefore, Gabi can go 11.8 - 10.45 = 1.35 more miles per gallon if she uses gas from Good Gas for her car. Answer: \boxed{1.35}.
5.5 170.5
10.2 316.2
12.0 372.0
14.5 449.5

Gallons of Gas Miles Driven
3.75 127.5
