Question

An auto club drove a new hybrid car 442.4 miles. They refilled the gas tank with 10.2 gallons of gas. How many miles per gallon did the hybrid car get? A. 4.33 B. 4.46 C. 43.37 D. 44.63

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is D. The hybrid car got 43.37 miles pero gallon.  

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the number of miles traveled for each gallon of gasoline consumed by the car, the number of miles traveled must be divided by the number of gallons consumed.

Thus, if 442.4 miles were traveled and 10.2 gallons of gasoline were consumed, the following calculation should be performed:

442.4 / 10.2 = X

43.37 = X

Therefore, for every gallon consumed 43.37 miles were traveled.
