Answer: 5 gallons

Explanation:

First, we need to know how many miles we can get by on a gallon of gas. To find this, we need to divide 378 miles by 9 gallons.

378/9 = 42

42 miles per gallon.

Now, we need to find how many gallons of gas it will take Abigail to travel 210. To find this, we simply divide 210 by 42.

210/42 = 5

It will take Abigail 5 gallons of gas to travel 210 miles.
