One of your delivery trucks traveled 1,200 miles on 55 gallons of gas. How many miles per gallon did the truck get? (Round off your answer to the nearest hundredth.)
A. 45.84
B. 21.81
C. 45.83
D. 21.82

Respuesta :

The word "Per" means divide

"miles per gallon" is the same as "miles / gallon"

The truck went 1,200 miles
on 55 gallons

1,200 ÷ 55 = 21.81
Simply divide the two quantities to attain the correct unit.

1200 miles/55 gallons = 21.82 miles/gallon
The answer is D.
