To determine which truck drove the most miles per gallon of gas, we can calculate the miles per gallon (MPG) for each truck using the formula:
\[ \text{MPG} = \frac{\text{Miles Driven}}{\text{Gallons of Gas Used}} \]
Now, let's calculate the MPG for each truck:
-
Truck A: \[ \text{MPG} = \frac{45}{3} = 15 \text{ MPG} \]
-
Truck B: \[ \text{MPG} = \frac{24}{2} = 12 \text{ MPG} \]
-
Truck C: \[ \text{MPG} = \frac{14}{1} = 14 \text{ MPG} \]
-
Truck D: \[ \text{MPG} = \frac{36}{4} = 9 \text{ MPG} \]
Now, let's compare the MPGs:
- Truck A: 15 MPG
- Truck B: 12 MPG
- Truck C: 14 MPG
- Truck D: 9 MPG
The truck that drove the most miles per gallon of gas is Truck A, with 15 MPG.
