Answer 1

264.7miles per gallon

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance traveled = 264km

volume of gasoline = 23.3L

Unknown:

Gas mileage  = ?

Solution:

We are to solve for the Gas mileage in miles per gallon. This will show how much gas was used per miles covered.

Convert km to miles

                liters to gallon

    1mile = 1.609km

     1liter = 0.264gallon

In miles; $\frac{264}{1.609}$ = 164.1miles

    23.3L  =  23.3 x 0.264 = 0.62gallon

 miles per gallon = $\frac{164.1 miles }{0.62gallon}$ = 264.7miles per gallon
