Based on the information provided, we can determine the price per gallon for each store. If Store A has a cost of $0.25 per gallon, this is significantly cheaper than Store B, which has a cost of $3.50 per gallon. Therefore, in this case, Store A has the cheaper gasoline.

The other statements provided are inconsistent with the initial prices, as a gasoline cost of $100 per gallon or $5 per gallon at Store A would still be much higher than the costs listed for Store B.

So, to summarize the correct interpretation:

  • Store A has the cheaper gasoline. (Cost: $0.25 per gallon)
  • Store B does not have cheaper gasoline. (Cost: $3.50 per gallon)

Thus, the answer is Store A has the cheaper gasoline.
