To find the mileage per gallon for Mr. Anderson, we divide the total miles driven (522 miles) by the total gallons of gas used (15.35 gallons).

Mileage per gallon = Total miles driven / Total gallons of gas used

Mileage per gallon = 522 miles / 15.35 gallons

Mileage per gallon ≈ 34.01 mpg

Therefore, the correct answer is 34.01 mpg.
