Answer 1

Explanation:

Abby's car gets approximately 24 miles per gallon. This means that for every 24 mile that her car covers, it uses 1 gallon of gas. She is planning a 1200 mile trip. This means that the number of gallons of gas that she would need would be 1200/24 = 50 gallons.

One average price of 1 gallon of gas is $4.20. The total amount that she would spend in buying 50 gallons of gas would be

50 × 4.2 = $210
