Answer 1

To find Pira's speed, we divide the distance traveled (825 miles) by the time it took (17 hours).
Therefore, his speed is 825 miles divided by 17 hours, which equals 48.53 miles per hour.

To find Pira's gas mileage, we divide the number of miles driven (825 miles) by the number of gallons of gas used (38 gallons).
Therefore, his gas mileage is 825 miles divided by 38 gallons, which equals 21.71 miles per gallon.

To find the unit price he paid for gas, we divide the total cost of gas ($125) by the number of gallons of gas used (38 gallons).
Therefore, the unit price he paid for gas is $125 divided by 38 gallons, which equals $3.29 per gallon.
