    161 miles

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We need to first find the number of miles the car can travel in 1 gallon. Then we will mulitply that with 7 to get number of miles travelled in 7 gallons.

    To find unit rate, we divide number of miles travelled (184) by number of gallons used (8). So

    Miles per gallon = 184/8 = 23 mpg

    Thus, is 7 gallons, it would travel:

    7 * 23 = 161 miles
