To determine the average miles per gallon, we need to divide the total number of miles traveled by the total gallons of gasoline used.
Based on the graph provided, if the car traveled a total of 9000 miles and used a total of 450 gallons of gasoline, the average miles per gallon would be:
9000 miles / 450 gallons = 20 miles per gallon
So, the correct response is:
The car averaged 20 miles per gallon.
