Lars purchases a new SUV. The car has a 15-gallon gas tank. If he can drive 330 miles on a full tank of gas, what is the unit rate of miles per gallon he gets?(1 point)

____miles per gallon

1 answer

To find the unit rate of miles per gallon, you can use the formula:

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

In this case, Lars drives 330 miles on a full tank of gas, which is 15 gallons. Plugging in these values:

\[ \text{Miles per gallon} = \frac{330 \text{ miles}}{15 \text{ gallons}} = 22 \text{ miles per gallon} \]

Therefore, Lars gets 22 miles per gallon.
