Question 885424: if a car gets 24 highway how much gas would be needed to drive 205 miles

I'm assuming you meant to say "24 mpg on the highway"
(24 mpg)*(x gallons) = 205 miles
24x = 205
x = 205/24
x = 8.54166666666667
Round up to get 9 gallons. You need 9 gallons to drive 205 miles.
Note: Don't round down to 8 because 8 gallons is not enough (notice how 24*8 = 192 miles)
