450 miles

================

To find the number of miles that can be traveled on a full tank of gas, we need to multiply the tank capacity (15 gallons) by the average mileage per gallon (30 miles/gallon).

  • 15 gallons * 30 miles/gallon = 450 miles

Therefore, Sarah and her friend can travel 450 miles on a full tank of gas.
