Step-by-step explanation:

To know what is the cost to travel 380 miles, we need to know the cost of one gallon of fuel. So, let's assume that this cost is $3.8 per gallon.

Since 380 miles spent 20 gallons of fuel, the cost is

C = 20 gallons x $3.8 = $76

Answers:

Therefore, the answers are:

How much would that cost: $76

What did you have to assume to get the answer: The cost of one gallon of fuel

Type the number you assumed here: 3.8
