The correct answer is 22.5 miles per gallon.
To find the vehicle's consumption rate in miles per gallon, you need to divide the total miles driven by the total gallons of gasoline used. In this case, the driver drove 90 miles and used 4 gallons of gasoline.
Consumption rate = Total miles driven / Total gallons of gasoline used
Consumption rate = 90 miles / 4 gallons
Simplifying this equation gives:
Consumption rate = 22.5 miles per gallon
So, the correct answer is 22.5 miles per gallon.
To calculate the vehicle's consumption rate in miles per gallon, you need to divide the number of miles driven by the number of gallons used.
In this case, the driver drove 90 miles and used 4 gallons of gasoline. By dividing 90 miles by 4 gallons, you get 22.5 miles per gallon.
Therefore, the correct answer is "22.5 miles per gallon."
