Question

You are going on a road trip over a distance of 3000 kilometers with three friends. The car consumes 666 liters of gas per 100 kilometers and gas costs $ 1.20 per liter. If you want to split the cost of gas evenly between the four of you, how much should each of you chip in?

Answer 1

Try proportions. It can help since it's asking for the "cost". Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

Each of you would have to spend $5,994.

3K/100=30 fills

30fillsx666 liters= 19980 Liters

19980 liters x $1.20/liter = $23,976

$23,976/4 = $5,994
