A.

100 miles per gallon

–6 miles per gallon

Answer 1

D. 25 miles per gallon.....9 goes into 250 (just estimating) around 27 times..not sure exactly, I am doing this in my head.

Answer 2

process of elimination tells me it is not A or B and C lists kilo's per lite...not what the question is asking. That just leaves D.

Answer 3

typo * liter
