Answer:
To find the miles traveled per gallon of gas, we divide the total distance traveled by the total number of gallons used.
[tex]\[ \text{Miles per gallon} = \frac{\text{Total distance traveled}}{\text{Total gallons used}} \][/tex]
Given:
Total distance traveled = 456 miles
Total gallons used = 12 gallons
[tex]\[ \text{Miles per gallon} = \frac{456 \, \text{miles}}{12 \, \text{gallons}} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Miles per gallon} = 38 \, \text{miles/gallon} \][/tex]
So, Jodi's car traveled approximately 38 miles per gallon of gas.
