    Calculate the miles per gallon a car gets given the gallons of gas used and the total miles driven. Assume the car holds 15 gallons of gas and travels a total of 350 miles on a full tank. The formula for miles per gallons (MPG) is given by total miles driven/total gallons used. We know the answer should be 23.33 mpg. Your output should be 1 line: the car gets xxx miles per gallon.
