Answer 1

The unit price is 4.15 dollars per gallon

Explanation:

- Yolanda buys 5.8 gallons of gas for $24.07

- We need to find the unit price in dollars per gallon

- Unit price means the price of each gallon

∵ The number of gallons = 5.8 gallons

∵ The price of the gallons = $24.07

∵ The unit price = the amount of money ÷ number of gallons

∴ The unit price = 24.07 ÷ 5.8

∴ The unit price = 4.15 dollars per gallon

* The unit price is 4.15 dollars per gallon
