149.38 x 1 divided by 42.68
=3.5 gallons

Answer:

3.5 gallons of gas would he need

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement:

Jack's car gets 42.68 miles per gallon of gas

⇒In 1 gallon of gas = 42.68 miles

WE can write this as:

in 1 miles = [tex]\frac{1}{42.68}[/tex] gallon of gas.

Since, if he had to travel 149.38 miles

then

149.38 miles = [tex]\frac{149.38}{42.68} = 3.5[/tex] gallon of gas

Therefore, 3.5 gallons of gas would he need
