Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ben's car gets between 18 and 21 miles per gallon of gas. If his car's tank holds 15 gallons, it means that the least distance that Ben can drive on one tank of gas would be

18 × 15 = 270 miles.

Also, the most distance that Ben can drive on one tank of gas would be

21 × 15 = 315 miles.

Therefore the the range of distance that Ben can drive on one tank of gas is between 270 miles and 315 miles. If d represents the distance, then the range is

270 ≤ d ≤ 315)
