Question

a gas tank on a car holds 13.3 gallons if the car goes 199.5 miles on a single tank how many miles per gallon does the car get?

Answer 1

To find out how many miles per gallon the car gets, you can use the formula:

\[
\text{Miles per gallon} = \frac{\text{Total miles driven}}{\text{Gallons of gas used}}
\]

In this case, the total miles driven is 199.5 miles and the gallons of gas used is 13.3 gallons. Now, plug the values into the formula:

\[
\text{Miles per gallon} = \frac{199.5 \text{ miles}}{13.3 \text{ gallons}} \approx 15.0 \text{ miles per gallon}
\]

So, the car gets approximately 15.0 miles per gallon.
