Answer:
-25.17 miles per gallon.
-It costs $49.02 to fill your tank.
Step-by-step explanation:
-To find the miles per gallon, you can use a rule of three:
17.2 gallons → 433 miles
1 gallon → x
x=(1*433)/17.2= 25.17
If your gas tank holds 17.2 gallons, you car can drive 25.17 miles per gallon.
-To find the cost to fill your tank, you have to multiply the price per gallon for the amount of gallons that the tank can hold:
$2.85*17.2=$49.02
It costs $49.02 to fill your tank.
