(I may or may not be wrong)
The car uses 25 miles per gallon.
The trip is a total of 951 miles.
A gallon of gas is $3.08
How much $ will be spent? How many gallons will be used?
[tex]\frac{951}{25} =38.04[/tex]
When you multiply 38.04 by 25, you get 951. So you can also multiply 38.04 by 1 gallon to find the number of gallons for 951 miles, which is just 38.04.
To find the cost, multiply $3.08 with 38.04 = 117.1632 or 117.16
How much money will be spent?
$117.16
How many gallons will be used?
38.04 gallons
