Lars purchases a new SUV. The cat has 15-gallon gas tank. If he can drive 330miles on a full tank of gas, What is the unit rate of miles per gallons he gets?

1 answer

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

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

Lars can drive 330 miles on a full tank of gas, and the gas tank holds 15 gallons. Therefore, the calculation is:

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

So, the unit rate is 22 miles per gallon.
