Answer: amount = 2466.95L
Explanation:
given that the speed is = 1900./kmh i.e. 1hr/900km
distance = 1050km
the fuel burns at a rate of 74.4 L/min
therefore the amount of fuel that the jet consumes on a 1050.km becomes;
total fuel used = time × fuel burning rate
where time = distance / speed
∴ total fuel used (consumed) = time × fuel burning rate
total fuel consumed = (1050km × 1hr/1900km) × (60min/ 1hr × 74.4L/1min)
total fuel consumed = 2466.95L
