Answer:

D: Susan's car get 33 miles per gallon of gas.

Explanation:

We are given that Jan drives a red car and Susan drives a blue car.

There are no red cars in New York.

In one gallon of gas , blue car travel distance=33 miles

We have to find which statement is true based on the given information.

If no red car In New York then it means Jane does not live in New York.

If Susan drives blue car , and blue car travels 33 miles in one gallon of gas then, Susan's car gets 33 miles per gallon of gas.

Because it is not necessary Susan lives in New York .Susan may be lives in New York or may not be lives in New York.

Hence, Susan car gets 33 miles per gallon of gas this information is must be true.

Answer:D: Susan's car get 33 miles per gallon of gas.
