Answer 1

Answer:

1.5 gallon per day

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

Daily miles = 42

Average gasoline used = 28 mil/gallon

Daily use of gasoline = $\frac{Daily mile}{Average gasoline}$

                                   = $\frac{42}{28}$ = 1.5 gallon /day

∴ we get

she conserve gasoline a day = 1.5 gallon per day
