Answer:
Average U.S. gas prices rose to an all-time high of $4.104 per gallon Monday, fuel data platform GasBuddy reported, as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine spread chaos throughout energy markets and drove prices up by a record-setting 49.1 cents per gallon over just seven days.
As of Tuesday morning, the average national price for a gallon of regular gasoline touched $4.17, according to AAA, the highest price ever, not accounting for inflation. That was up from $4.07 on Monday and $3.61 a week earlier. The previous high was $4.11 on July 17, 2008, according to AAA.
