Answer 2

Here, the question is asking for us to find the number of miles traveled on 1 gallon of gas. We are giving the fact that on 12 gallons, we can travel 360 miles.
Thus we divide 360 by 12 to find the appropriate ratio of 1 gallon to miles.
$\frac{360}{12} = \frac{30}{1} = 30$
The unit rate for traveling on 1 gallon is 30 miles.
