Answer:
The fuel efficiency of the compact car is 25.33 miles/gallon.
Step-by-step explanation:
The fuel efficiency of the an SUV = f = 16 miles/gallons
The fuel efficiency of the a compact care= f'
Given: [tex]f'=1\frac{7}{12}\times f[/tex]
[tex]=f'=\frac{19}{12}\times f[/tex]
[tex]f'=\frac{19}{12}\times 16 miles/gallon=25.33 miles/gallons[/tex]
The fuel efficiency of the compact car is 25.33 miles/gallon
