Answer:

399.17 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Gunnar's car gets 22.4 miles per gallon. His gas tank can hold 17.82 gallons of gas.

Gunnar's car travels with one gallon of gas = 22.4 miles

He can travel with 17.82 gallon of gas = 17.82 × 22.4

= 399.168 ≈ 399.17 miles

Gunnar can travel 399.17 miles if he uses all of the gas in the gas tank.
