Valerie buys a new car. She can drive 288 miles on a full tank of gas. If her car holds 16 gallons of gasoline, what is the unit rate of miles per gallon?(1 point)
___miles per gallon
To find the unit rate of miles per gallon, we divide the total number of miles by the number of gallons.
Unit rate = 288 miles / 16 gallons
Simplifying the expression, we get:
Unit rate = 18 miles per gallon
So, the unit rate of miles per gallon is 18 miles per gallon.
