URGENT PLEASE HURRY I'M RUNNING OUT OF TIME!!!!!

Alicia drives to work at a speed of 45 mph. It takes her about 2 hours ...and 15 minutes to get to work. If gas costs $2.75 per gallon and Alicia's car gets 25 miles per gallon, about how much does Alicia spend on gas to get to work?

Please include answer and how you did it.

1hr is 60 min so
60÷15=4
45miles×2hrs=90
45÷4=11.25
90+11.25=101.25 miles
101.25 miles÷ 25 miles per gallon= 4.05 gallons
4.05 gallons× $2.75 per gallon= $11.1375
$11.1375= $11.14
Alicia spends $11.14 on gas to get to work
