To find the total cost to fill up your tank, you can multiply the number of gallons by the cost per gallon.

Total cost = Number of gallons × Cost per gallon

In this case, you pumped 22.35 gallons at a cost of $1.79 per gallon:

Total cost = 22.35 gallons × $1.79/gallon

Calculating this:

Total cost = 22.35 × 1.79 = $39.8735

Rounding to two decimal places, the total cost to fill up your tank is approximately **$39.87**.

To calculate the total cost of filling up the tank:

Total cost = Number of gallons × Cost per gallon
Total cost = 22.35 gallons × $1.79/gallon

Calculating this gives:

Total cost = 22.35 × 1.79 = $39.8735

Rounding to two decimal places, the total cost is approximately **$39.87**.

Since this is not one of the options you provided, let's check carefully:

1. $22.35 - This is just the gallons, not the cost.
2. $12.49 - This is way too low.
3. $24.14 - This is also too low.
4. $40.01 - This is the closest to $39.87.

Thus, the best answer from the options given is **$40.01**.
