3 miles per gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Pickup SUV:

84 miles traveled on 4 gallons of gas

SUV:

72 miles traveled on 3 gallons of gas

How many more miles per gallon did the SUV get than the truck?

Calculating the miles per gallon for each vehicle :

Pickup SUV:

Miles per gallon :

Number of miles traveled / gallons of gas used ;

84 miles / 4 gallons = 21 miles per gallon

SUV:

72 Miles / 3 gallons = 24 miles per gallon

Difference ; (24 - 21) = 3 miles per gallon

Hence, SUV has 3 miles per gallon more Than the pickup SUV
