Answer 1

The employee used 36.67 gallons of gas for the week and spent a total of $110.01, given the car's fuel efficiency of 30 MPG and a gas price of $3 per gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate how much money the employee spent on gas during the week, we need to determine the total gallons of gas used and then multiply it by the average cost per gallon of gasoline. With the information provided, we know the employee traveled 1100 miles and the car gets 30 miles per gallon. First, we divide the total miles by the miles per gallon to find out the total gallons of gas used:

1100 miles ÷ 30 miles per gallon = 36.67 gallons (rounded to two decimal places)

Next, we multiply the total gallons of gas by the average cost per gallon:

36.67 gallons × $3 per gallon = $110.01

Therefore, the employee spent $110.01 on gas during the week.
