Answer:

$145.98

Step-by-step explanation:

You and some friends plan a road trip to a sunny destination that is 1705 miles away.

You drive a car that gets 39 miles per gallon.

Total gas used in the trip = [tex]\frac{1705}{39}[/tex]

                                          = 43.7179487 ≈ 43.72 gallons

Gas costs per gallon = $3.339

Total cost to get to your destination = 43.72 × 3.339

                                                            = $145.98108 ≈ $145.98

The cost would be $145.98 to get to your destination.
