Explanation:

so many typos. I can only guess what you need. and you skipped the information about rounding. so, I cannot do that for you.

the car can travel 4.5 miles per gallon of gas.

to go 100 miles with one tank filling, the tank must have a capacity of at least

100/4.5 = 22.22222222... gallons

please round to whatever you need.

Answer:

23 gallons

or 22.2 (repeated)

Explanation:

divide 100 by the number of miles per gallon

11/4.5=22.2

if you have to answer in a whole number round up because it says minimum
