To find the unit rate of miles per gallon, you can divide the total miles driven by the total gallons of gas used.
Given:
- Miles driven = 420 miles
- Gallons of gas used = 10 gallons
The calculation is:
\[
\text{Unit rate (miles per gallon)} = \frac{\text{Miles}}{\text{Gallons}} = \frac{420 \text{ miles}}{10 \text{ gallons}} = 42 \text{ miles per gallon}
\]
So, the unit rate is **42 miles per gallon**.
