after filling a gas tank the odometer read 27,829.5. After the next filling it read 28,176.0. It took 16.5 gal to fill the tank. How many miler per gallon did the driver get

Answer provided by our tutors

The total miles traveled equals 28176.0 - 27829.5 = 346.5

The total amount of gas used = 16.5 gallons

Thus, the miles/gallon = 346.5/16.5 = 21 miles per gallon
