Mr. Dunn estimates he uses 3 gallons of gas over the course of a week. How many miles per gallon does his car get when he drives 105 miles?
35 miles per gallon.
since he drive 105 miles with oly 3 gallons of gas. you divide miles per gallons to get miles per gallon

To calculate the miles per gallon (MPG) Mr. Dunn's car gets, divide the total number of miles driven by the amount of gas used.
1. We know that Mr. Dunn estimates he uses 3 gallons of gas over a week.
2. Let's convert the number of gallons to miles per gallon (MPG). To do this, we divide the total number of miles driven by the gallons of gas used.
MPG = Total miles / Total gallons
3. In this case, Mr. Dunn drives 105 miles.
MPG = 105 miles / 3 gallons
4. Calculate the result:
MPG = 35 miles per gallon
Therefore, Mr. Dunn's car gets approximately 35 miles per gallon when he drives 105 miles.
To find out how many miles per gallon Mr. Dunn's car gets, we need to divide the total distance traveled by the amount of gas used.
In this case, Mr. Dunn drives 105 miles and estimates that he uses 3 gallons of gas over a week.
So, to calculate the fuel efficiency, we divide the distance traveled (105 miles) by the amount of gas used (3 gallons).
The calculation would be: 105 miles ÷ 3 gallons = 35 miles per gallon.
Therefore, Mr. Dunn's car gets an estimated fuel efficiency of 35 miles per gallon.
