| Answer:
For city driving,
the Metro would go the farthest. For highway driving,
the Navigator would go farthest, although not
significantly farther. You might also consider combinations
of city and highway driving. |

Complete Solution:
Different combinations of city
and highway driving are possible. If you assume all driving
is done on the highway, the Navigator should go farthest
as seen in the chart below, but all three go approximately
the same distance.
