The total distance is 1054 miles

The rate of fuel consumption is 20/440 = 1/22 gallons per mile.

1/22 gallons/mile * 1054 miles = 1054/22 gallons = 47.9 gallons
SyntaxError
So we now that there's [tex] \frac{440}{20} = 22 [/tex]//
 gallons per mile used.

Now if we divide [tex] \frac{1054}{22} = 47.9 [/tex] //
round that to 48 and the car will use around 48 gallons to travel 1054 miles
