Question

Marisa's car gets an average of 28 miles per gallon of gas. She plans to drive 200 miles today and 220 miles tomorrow. How many gallons of gas should she expect to use in all?

A) 15 gallons
B) 28 gallons
C) 56 gallons
D) 67 gallons

Answer 1

15

Explanation:

Add the total of miles Marisa is going to drive; 200 + 220 = 420

Next, divide the total miles by the average miles Marisa can travel on one gallon of gas; 420 / 28 = 15
