Every 34 miles, you get one gallon. So when you build an equation it will be:
610 miles / (34 miles/hr)
= 610 miles x 1 hr / 34 miles

chiunlee12 · Answer

sorry, gallons instead of hr

cicilybailey14 · Answer

So I do that math?

chiunlee12 · Answer

So: 610 miles x 1 gallon / 34 miles.
If you simplify that, it would give: 610 x 1 gallon / 34
