    1 gallon of gas = $2.5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If you are finding the rate just set up the ratio equation.

    6 gallons = $15

    6 : 15

    6/15

    Now you want to find the price of 1 gallon, with x as being the price.

    6/15 = 1/x

    Cross multiply

    6 · x = 1 · 15

    6x = 15

    Solve x.

    x = 15 : 6

    x = 2.5
