Given parameters:

Mike's car rate = 21miles per gallon

Distance = 400 miles

Unknown:

Number of gallons of gas = ?

Solution:

The rate of fuel consumption by Mikes car is given as;

Rate = $\frac{distance traveled }{number of gallons}$

Number of gallons = $\frac{distance traveled }{rate}$

Number of gallons = $\frac{400}{21}$ = 19gallons
