Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we need to know how odometer works. The change in odometer means the distance you have travelled.

Therefore:

112773-112352

=421 miles

Average, meaning you take the distance travelled divided by the gallons of gas used.

421/16

=26.3125

round up

≈26
