324mi(5gal/135mi)=12gal

The car will use 12 gallons of gas to travel 324 miles.

Answer: 12 gallons of gas

Step-by-step explanation:

Timmy's car can travel an average of 135 miles on 5 gallons of gas.

To travel on 1 gallon of gas, the car will travel = 135/5 = 27 miles

The gallons of gas that will be used to travel 324 miles will be the total number of miles to be covered divided by the number miles covered for 1 gallon.

= 324/27

= 12 gallons of gas

For a journey of 324miles, 12 gallons of gas will be used.
