Answer:

C. 252 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we already know how many miles is driven for 10 gallons of gas, we only need to find 2.

Since 105 miles runs on 5 gallons, divide 105 by 5 to find out how many miles runs on 1 gallon.

105/5=21

Then, multiply that by 2 to find out how many miles run on 2 gallons of gas.

21x2=42.

Finally, add 42 to 210 to get the amount of miles that runs on 12 gallons of gas.

210+42=252
