To calculate the vehicle's consumption rate in miles per gallon, we need to divide the number of miles driven by the amount of gasoline used.
In this case, the driver drove 90 miles and used 4 gallons of gasoline.
So, the consumption rate is calculated as:
90 miles / 4 gallons = 22.5 miles per gallon.
Therefore, the correct answer is: 22.5 miles per gallon.
To find the vehicle's consumption rate in miles per gallon, we need to divide the number of miles driven by the number of gallons of gasoline used. In this case, the driver drove 90 miles and used 4 gallons of gasoline.
So, the consumption rate in miles per gallon is calculated as:
Consumption Rate = Miles Driven / Gallons of Gasoline Used
Substituting the given values:
Consumption Rate = 90 miles / 4 gallons
Simplifying the division, we get:
Consumption Rate = 22.5 miles per gallon
Therefore, the correct answer is: 22.5 miles per gallon.
