An individual has been driving a passenger vehicle to work, averaging 60 miles a week in a car that averages 22 miles per gallon. The individual plans to purchase a hybrid vehicle that averages 50 miles per gallon. If the individual drives to work 50 weeks a year, how much gas will they save if they switch to a hybrid vehicle for their commute

76.36 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Average miles per week = 60

Number of weeks per year = 50

Thus, average miles per year = (60 * 50) = 3000 miles per year

Average miles per gallon of passenger vehicle = 22 mpg

Gas consumed by passenger vehicle per year :

3000m / 22 mpg = 136.36 gallons

Average miles per gallon of hybrid vehicle = 50 mpg

3000m / 50mpg = 60 gallons

Gas saved = (136.36 - 60) = 76.36 gallons
