Lars purchases a new SUV. The car has a 15-gallon gas tank. If he can drive 330 miles on a full tank of gas, what is the unit rate of miles per gallon he gets?(1 point) _ miles per gallon
To find the unit rate of miles per gallon Lars gets, we need to divide the number of miles he can drive by the number of gallons his tank can hold.
Gallons of gas per mile = Total miles driven / Gallons of gas used
Gallons of gas per mile = 330 miles / 15 gallons = 22 miles per gallon
Therefore, Lars gets 22 miles per gallon.
To find the unit rate of miles per gallon, we need to divide the total number of miles driven by the number of gallons of gas used. In this case, Lars can drive 330 miles on a full tank, and the tank has 15 gallons of gas.
Unit rate = Total miles driven / Number of gallons of gas used
Unit rate = 330 miles / 15 gallons
Simplifying the division, the unit rate of miles per gallon Lars gets is:
Unit rate = 22 miles per gallon
To find the unit rate of miles per gallon Lars gets, we need to divide the number of miles he can drive on a full tank of gas by the size of the gas tank.
So, we divide 330 miles by 15 gallons:
Miles per Gallon = 330 miles / 15 gallons
Using a calculator, we can find that Miles per Gallon is equal to approximately 22 miles per gallon.
