Question 360214: What will you save yearly on gasoline if you buy a more fuel efficient car that gets "m" miles per gallon and a gas guzzler that gets "M" miles per gallon. Assume you drive "d" miles per year and the price of gas stays constant at "p" dollars per gallon.

Let miles=m'
m'/g=m
1/m * d = d/m gallons
d/m * p = dp/m dollars
dp/M - dp/m = what you will save yearly on gasoline if you buy a more fuel efficient car that gets "m" miles per gallon and a gas guzzler that gets "M" miles per gallon.
