Answer:

63.2:1

Explanation:

We can find the unit rate by making equations that will help us solve.

We need to find how many miles the car travels in one gallon.

We can divide 625.68 by 9.9.

625.68/9.9 = 63.2

The car travels 63.2 miles on one gallon of gas.

Meaning that the unit rate is 63.2:1.

Hope this helps. Have a nice day.
