Answer 2

To find the miles per gallon, you've got to divide the larger number (512) by 16, and this gives you 32. Therefore, the car is 32 miles to e gallon. You've also got to do this for the second one, and in this case, you've got to divide $117.50 by 50, and this gives you 2.35, which means that a pound of dog food costs $2.35 Hope this helps :)
