Vehicle A averages 14 miles per gallon of gasoline, and Vehicle B averages 36 miles per gallon of gasoline. At these rates, how many more gallons of
gasoline does Vehicle A need than Vehicle B to make a 1,008-mile trip?
A. 25 B. 28 C. 44 D. 50 E. 72

Solution

1008 / 14 = 72 = number of gallons vehicle A requires.

1008 / 36 = 28 = number of gallons vehicle B requires.

Vehicle A requires 72 - 28 = 44 more gallons of gas than vehicle B requires.

That would be selection C.
