B. 50 miles per gallon
C. 18 miles per gallon
D. 28 1/3 miles per gall

Answer 1

I don't have the miles and gallons from the problem — could you post those numbers?

How to get the unit rate: miles per gallon = (miles) ÷ (gallons). Then simplify to one of the choices.

Examples:
- If the car went 85 miles on 3 gallons → 85 ÷ 3 = 28 1/3 mpg (choice D).
- If it went 50 miles on 1 gallon → 50 mpg (B).
- If it went 18 miles on 1 gallon → 18 mpg (C).
- If it went 1 mile on 18 gallons → 1/18 mpg (A).

Send the given miles and gallons and I’ll pick the correct choice.
