Take the miles (384) divided by the rate (32) to get 12. 15-12=3 
Three gallons will be left.

Does this make sense?      The car can go 32 miles before consuming a full gallon of gas and it traveled 384 miles. So if you divide the 384 miles by 32 miles per gallon, you are left with the gallons consumed. 
 
Once you have this number, you can subtract it from 15 gallons–the total amount of gas in the tank–to get how much gas is left.
