Notta fishent is out driving with her friends. her car engine needs a tune-up, and is running poorly. Usually she gets 18.5 miles per gallon (mph), but while the engine is running poorly, she only gets 14.5 mpg. How many kWh does it take to drive her car one miles while the engine is running poorly?

14.5 miles/gallon. one mile then is 1/14.5 gallon of gas. So to convert this gallon of gas to kilowatts, you need the energy content of a gallon of gas. If it is in kJoules, convert that to kWh by https://www.unitjuggler.com/convert-energy-from-kJ-to-kWh.html
