As an example I will finish this problem statement for you:

"A car traveled at an average speed of 80 miles per hour for 3 hours and consumes fuel at a rate of 34 miles per gallon.  How many gallons of fuel will the car use on this trip?

Distance traveled is (80 mph)(3 hrs) = 240 miles.

How many gallons of gas did the car consume?

240 miles        1 gallon
-------------- * -------------- =  7.06 gallons (approx)
        1            34 miles

The number of gallons of fuel that car use for the trip is 7.06 gallons.

Given that,

  • The speed of the car is 80 miles per hour.
  • The time taken is 3 hours
  • And, the fuel rate is 34 miles per gallon.

Now based on the above information, the number of gallons should be

[tex]= \frac{3\times 80}{34}[/tex]

= 7.6 gallons

Therefore we can conclude that the number of gallons of fuel that car use for the trip is 7.06 gallons.
