Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

If you drive 400 miles a month, and you get 19 miles per gallon, then you will need

gallons = miles / miles per gallon

Givens

m = 400

mpg = 19

Cost per gallon = 1.21

Solution

gallons = 400 / 19 = 21.05

You need to buy 21.05 gallons

1 gallon costs 1.21

21.05 gallons cost x            Cross multiply

x = 1.21 * 21.05

Answer: x = 25.47              Cost for 1 month's fuel.
