Answer 1

Explanation:

You need to divide 335 miles by 13.4 to find the miles per gallon. 335 miles divided by 13.4 gallons is 25. So for every 25 miles you use 1 gallon.

The car gets 25 miles per gallon.

It means that for each gallon of gas the car uses, it will travel a distance of 25 miles.

Explanation:

"Miles per gallon" is calculated by dividing the number of miles by the number of gallons.

mpg = (335 miles)/(13.4 gallons) = 25 miles per gallon

Answer:

The car gets 25 miles per gallon.

It means that for each gallon of gas the car uses, it will travel a distance of 25 miles.
