okay, first we got the information that there are 16 gallons worth of gas in the tank Maritza use 3/4 of that 16 gallons so, the amount of gas that Maritza uses is : 3/4 x 16 gallons = 12 Gallons

Answer:

12 gallons of gas does Maritza use.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement:

Maritza's car has 16 gallons of gas in the tank. She uses 3/4 of the gas.

⇒Total gas in her car = 16 gallons

and

She used = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] of the total gas

Then;

Maritza's car uses  = [tex]\frac{3}{4} \times 16 = 3 \times 4 = 12[/tex] gallons

Therefore, 12 gallons of gas does Maritza use.
