how much gas do you use to travel 172 miles at 4.00 a gallon.
Your question doesn't make any sense. Some vehicles get 10 miles per gallon; others get up to 40 miles per gallon. The price per gallon doesn't give any indication about how much gas is used.
Please clarify.
If you're asking about 4 miles per gallon -- divide 172 by 4.
To calculate how much gas you would use to travel 172 miles at $4.00 per gallon, you need to know the fuel efficiency or mileage of your vehicle. The fuel efficiency is typically measured in miles per gallon (MPG) and can vary depending on the make and model of your vehicle.
Once you know the MPG of your vehicle, you can use the following formula to calculate the amount of gas you would need:
Gas Used = Distance Traveled / MPG
Let's assume your vehicle has a fuel efficiency of 30 MPG:
Gas Used = 172 miles / 30 MPG
Gas Used = 5.73 gallons
Therefore, you would need approximately 5.73 gallons of gas to travel 172 miles at $4.00 per gallon.
