In this problem,  the given part is  IRRELEVANT  to the question,  and mutually,
the question is not relevant to the given part.

The key necessary info is  MISSED in the post:   it is the rate of consumption of gasoline per mile
(or miles per gallon of gasoline).


Under these circumstances,  the solution is  NOT  POSSIBLE.


Moreover,  I'd said that the problem is posed  ILLITERALY  and  DESERVES  to be thrown to the closest  GARBAGE  BIN.


This post is a FAKE and is not a Math problem.


Typical gibberish.


If I see such gibberish next time, will delete the post without explanations.

Depends on how many miles per gallon (MPG) the vehicle gives.
