1. 15 gallons = 330 miles

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

The first one is wrong. The other two are correct.

OpenStudy (aivantettet26):

how many miles per gallon? 330 / 15 = 22

OpenStudy (aivantettet26):

450 - 330 = 120

OpenStudy (aivantettet26):

120 / 22

OpenStudy (aivantettet26):

is equal to 60/11 or 5.45 gal
