Sora paid $26.46 for 8.4 gallons of gasoline. How much was each gallon of gasoline?

Question

$0.211
$0.315
$2.11
$3.15

Answer 1

To find the cost per gallon of gasoline, you can divide the total amount paid by the total number of gallons.

Sora paid $26.46 for 8.4 gallons.

Cost per gallon = Total amount paid / Total gallons
Cost per gallon = $26.46 / 8.4

Now, let's calculate it:

\[ Cost\ per\ gallon = \frac{26.46}{8.4} \approx 3.15 \]

Therefore, each gallon of gasoline cost approximately $3.15.

The correct answer is $3.15.
