Question 72903
Subtract $3 from 17.25
{{{17.25-3=14.25}}}This is how much money she has left over
Now divide this by the price of gas since the number of gallons*price=total
{{{14.25/2.5=5.7}}}So she can get as much as 5.7 gallons of gas
Check:
{{{(2.5*5.7)+3=17.25}}}
{{{14.25+3=17.25}}}
{{{17.25=17.25}}}Works
