Answer:

24.07 miles per gallon.

Explanation:

We are asked to find unit rate for 65 miles in 2.7 gallons.

To find a unit rate, we need to change the denominator of a quantity to 1.


\text{Unit rate}=\frac{\text{65 miles}}{\text{2.7 gallons}}


\text{Unit rate}=\frac{\text{24.07407 miles}}{\text{gallon}}

Round to nearest hundredth:


\text{Unit rate}\approx \frac{\text{24.07 miles}}{\text{gallon}}

Therefore, the unit rate is 24.07 miles per gallon.
