Answer:

premium: 91 octane rating

Step-by-step explanation:

Octane number refers to the percentage or volume fraction of isooctane in a fuel.

The octane number gives a picture of how safe a fuel is for an engine. The higher the octane rating the lesser the tendency of the fuel to cause knocking of the engine.

The type of gasoline with the highest percentage of octane among the options is premium.
