Cost of Driving = Distance (in miles) × Price per Gallon × Fuel Efficiency (in miles per gallon)
In this case:
- Distance = 160 miles
- Price per Gallon = $1.87
- Fuel Efficiency: Let's assume a typical fuel efficiency of 30 miles per gallon (mpg)
Plugging these values into the equation:
Cost of Driving = 160 miles × $1.87/gallon × (1/30 miles/gallon)
Cost of Driving ≈ $10.59
Therefore, it would cost approximately $10.59 to drive 160 miles at a price of $1.87 per gallon with a fuel efficiency of 30 miles per gallon.
