Answer:To solve this problem you would have to write 276.5 over 7.9 and divide the numerator and denominator by 7.9 since you want miles per gallon (it should have a denominator of 1 after you divide). When you do this you will get 35, so the Henry family got 35 miles per gallon of gas on the trip.
