Let's assume you meant to write: "The amount of money spent at that gas station..." [in the first sentence of this very Brainly question being asked.].

This is a "unit rate problem":

Given  $36 per 12 gallons;

 How many dollars per 1 (one gallon)?

To solve: "(36 ÷12)" dollars per gallon ;

             which equals "3 dollars per gallon" .

_________________________

Or; write as $3.00 per gallon.

The correct answer is: " $3.00 " .
