    Given:

    Fuel tank : 16.5 gallons of fuel

    1 gallon = 24.3 miles

    250 miles traveled

    250 miles / 24.3 miles = 10.29

    10.29 * 1 gallon = 10.29 gallons

    16.5 gallons - 10.29 gallons = 6.21 gallons of fuel remaining.

    16.5 gallons * 24.3 miles = 400.95 miles

    400.95 miles - 250 miles = 150.95 miles

    150.95 miles / 24.3 miles = 6.21 gallons of fuel remaining
