Two cars were at a gas station, a red car and a blue car. The red car filled up with 12 gallons of gas and was able to travel. The blue car filled up with 15 gallons of gas and was able to travel 330 miles. What was the gas mileage of each car? Which car got better gas mileage?

Sagot :

Answer:

Red Car Gas mileage:

= Distance travelled/ Gas used

= 300/12

= 25 mpg

Blue Car gas mileage:

= 330/15

= 22 mpg

The car with the better mileage is the one that goes further per gallon of gas which is the Red Car.
