    In the question it is already given the amount of actual gasoline and money consumed before the fuel efficiency gets increased by 25%

    Gasoline consumption before the increase in fuel efficiency = 25 gallons per week

    Gasoline saved after the increase in fuel efficiency = [25 * (25/100) ] gallons per week

    = 6.25 gallons per week

    So every week 6.25 gallons of gasoline can be saved after increasing the efficiency of the automobile by 25%.

    Then

    The amount of money saved against the 6.25 gallons of gasoline saved = (6.25 * 2) dollars

    = 12.50 dollars

    The amount of money saved is $12.50 per week.
