Pamela drove her car 99 kilometers and used 9 liters of fuel. She wants to know how many kilometers, (k), she can drive with 12

solong [7]

99 km ... 9 liters
x km ... 12 liters

If the relationship is proportional, we have

$\frac{99}{x} = \frac{9}{12}$

from where

$x = \frac{99*12}{9}= \frac{1188}{9}=\bold{132}$

The answer is 132 kilometers.
