Cody's car gets 24 miles per gallon of gas. (a) If St. Louis is 96 miles away, how many gallons of gas are needed to get there and then home? gallons (b) If gas is $3.04 per gallon, what is the total cost of the gas for the trip?

Respuesta :

Answer: 4 gallons and he needs $12.16

Step-by-step explanation:

So 24mpg(miles per gallon)x = 96miles

or

24x=96

divide both sides by 24 to get x=4

Since Cody needs 4 gallons of gas to travel and each gallon is $3.04 then we can do multiplication to find the total amount of cash needed

3.04(4)= $12.16

Cody will need $12.16 to pay for the 4 gallons of gas he needs to get to St. Louis
