It depends on the price per gallon.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
you are actually missing two pieces of information: $/gallon and Miles/day
if you take the information you give
+1+gallon%2F5+miles+ you need to multiply this by terms in such a way
that all the terms cancel out and leave you with the terms you want ( dollars/day)

so you need to provide the X and Y unknowns
