Answer:

80 miles were driven after
2(2)/(3) gallons of the gas was used.

Explanation:

The car gets 30 miles in one gallon and we have to calculate the miles driven after 2
(2)/(3) gallons of gas was used.

We will use unitary method to solve this question.

∵ In one gallon of gas car runs = 30 miles

∴ In 8/3 gallons the car will cover the distance =
(8)/(3)(30) = 8×10 = 80 miles

Therefore the car will be driven 80 miles with
2(2)/(3) gallons of gas.
