Brinks uses 2 gallons of gas per lawn mowed. He mows 5 lawns per day for 10 days. If he had to pay $249 for gas during those 10 days, how much would he pay for 1 gallon of gas?

2 gallons per lawn

5 lawns a day = 10 gallons

10 days = 100 gallons

100 * price of 1 gallon = 249 $

price of 1 gallon = 2.49$
