When Barbara started her trip, the odometer read 13,487.8. When she ended the trip, it read

14,108.6. Barbara's car gets 22 miles per gallon. Her tank was full at the beginning of the
trip. When she filled the tank, it cost her $88.04. How many gallons did Barb use, and what
price did she pay per gallon of gas on this fill-up?
HELP ASAP PLEASE

Answer:

28.2 gal

$3.12/gal

Explanation:

Length of trip:

14,108.6 mi - 13,487.8 mi = 620.8 mi

(620.8 mi)/(22 mpg) = 28.218 gal

She used 28.2 gallons.

price per gallon = $88.04/(28.218 gal) = $3.12/gal
