1.5 gallons x 20 days = 30 gallons
30 gallons x $2.00 = $60.00
You can multiply in any order
1.5 x 20 x 2
and get the same answer 60.
1.5 gallons x $2.00 = $3.00
20 days x $3.00 = $60.00
So you can check if your answer is correct
if you get the same answer two different ways.

Take into account 3% inflation per year, giving .25% increase over that monthly period to accurately reflect the increase in price, and...
Yeah, it'd be 60 dollars.
