Amy's car gets 32 miles per gallon. If her car's tank holds 15 gallons of gas, and she wants to keep a minimum of 1 gallon of gas in the tank for safety, how far (in miles) can Amy drive after filling up before she needs to fill up again?

448 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Amy's car can hold 15 gallons of gas. Provided that each gallon can drive her 32 miles. This means that 15 gallons can drive her 480 miles.

15 gallons x 32 miles = 480 miles

However, she needs to keep 1 gallon of gas in the tank for safety reasons. So we have to subtract 1 gallon from 15 gallons.

15 gallons - 1 gallon = 14 gallons

Now, let's compute again.

14 gallons x 32 miles = 448 miles

Amy can drive 448 miles before she needs to fill up the tank again.
