Answer:

The correct answers are 15 and 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must assume the information.

We know that the total miles traveled is 617.3.

Every 41 miles, Karl spent 1 gallon of gas.

What we need to find out now is to estimate the total number of gallons of gas Karl used.

We will do it with the following equation:

If for 41 miles ------- 1 gallon

For 617.3 miles ------ x Gallon

41. x = 617.3 . 1

And we just have to clear the x:

X = 617.3 / 41

X = 15.05

Because they ask us for an approximate logic result, we can say that the correct options are 15 or 16 gallons of gas.
