driving into a 20-mph breeze cuts gas mileage by about 12%. What will be your gas mileage in a 20-mph wind if it is 24 mi/gal with no wind

the gas mileage would be 21.12 mi/gal

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the gas mileage is shown below:

Given that

Driving into a 20-mph

Gas mileage by approx 12%

No wind at 24mi/gal

based on the above information

The deduction would be

= 12% × 24

= 2.88 mi/gal

Now the actual mileage in 20-mph would be

= 24 - 2.88

= 21.12 mi/gal

hence, the gas mileage would be 21.12 mi/gal
