Answer:

20 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 1.5 gallons from 14 gallons to obtain the number of days the car will run without the warning light going on:  12.5 gallons.

Dividing this result by 0.6 gallons/day, we get

 12.5 gal

------------------- = 20.82 days.  Round this down to 20 days.  (We're not

 0.6 gal/day                                dealing in partial days.)
