Hi there! :)

Answer:

The car needs 6 gallons of gas to travel 192 miles.


Explanation:

In order to answer your question, you'll need to use the cross product method:

32 miles → 1 gallon

192 miles → X gallons

(1 × 192) ÷ 32 = X gallons

192 ÷ 32 = X gallons

6 = X gallons


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
