Question

Danny’s truck can travel 384 miles on 16 gallons of gasoline. what is the number of mile per gallon?

Answer 1

24 miles per gallon

Explanation:

Distance = rate *gallons

We know the distance = 384 miles and the gallons = 16 gallons

384 = rate * 16

Divide each side by 16

384/16 = rate

24 miles per gallon

Answer 2

Divide the total miles by the total gallons used:

384 miles / 16 gallons = 24 miles per gallon.
