Answer:

375 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The gas mileage of the scooter = 75 miles for each gallon of gasoline.

Therefore:

If 1 gallon will cover a distance of 75 miles

Then: 5 gallons will cover a distance of:

5 x 75 miles

=375 miles

Matt will be able to drive 375 miles on 5 gallons of gasoline.
