Your car gets 28 miles per gallon, you will drive 1,130 miles each way. If the cost of gas is $3.00 per gallon, how much will your transportation cost? Round to the nearest dollar.

It would be about $121.20, since 1,130 divided by 28 equals 40.357, but rounded up that would be 40.4. 40.4 multiplied by the cost of gas per gallon, which is $3.00, equals 121.2, therefore making the cost $121.2. Hope this helps!

You first divide 1130/28=40.36

Then multiply 40.36*3=121.08

The transportation will cost $121.08
