Lars purchases a new SUV. The care 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?

Answer 1

To find the unit rate of miles per gallon that Lars gets from his SUV, you can use the following formula:

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

Lars can drive 330 miles on a full tank of gas, which is 15 gallons. Therefore:

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

So, the unit rate is 22 miles per gallon.
