Answer:

Gas station B

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the cost per gallon at both gas stations by dividing the cost by the number of gallons:

56/25 = 2.24

32.05/15 = 2.14

So, gas station A is $2.24 per gallon and gas station B is $2.14 per gallon

Since 2.14 is smaller than 2.24, gas station B is the better deal.

So, Patricia should stop at gas station B to get the best deal.
