We need to convert the mileage from mi/gal units into to km/L units using the conversion factors.

(31.0 mi/gal) x (1 km / 0.6214 mi) x (1 gal / 3.78 L) = 13.20 km/L

Next, we divide the distance by the mileage. 
(142 km) / (13.20 km/L) = 10.79 L

<span>Therefore, you need 10.79 liters of gasoline.</span>

10.76 liters of gasoline.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

  • The car mileage is 31.0 mi/gal.
  • We need to complete a 142-km trip in Europe.
  • The following conversions are 1 km = 0.6214 miles and 1 gal = 3.78 L.

<u>Question:</u>

How many liters of gasoline would we need to buy to complete a 142 km trip in Europe?

<u>The Process:</u>

This case is about gasoline efficiency in Europe.

The steps to solve this case are as follows:

  1. Convert the car mileage from mi/gal units into km/L units.
  2. Divide the distance by the converted mileage to get the amount of gasoline.

Step-1

The car mileage (in km/L)

\boxed{ \ 31.0 \ \frac{miles}{gal} \times \frac{1 \ km}{0.6214 \ miles} \times \frac{1 \ gal}{3.78 \ L }\ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ 13.20 \ \frac{km}{L} \ }

Step-2

The amount of gasoline (in L)

\boxed{ \ \frac{142 \ km}{13.20 \ \frac{km}{L}} \ } \rightarrow \boxed{\boxed{ \ 10.76 \ L \ }}

<u>Quick Steps:</u>

\boxed{ \ 142 \ km \times \frac{0.6214 \ miles}{1 \ km} \times \frac{1 \ gal}{31.0 \ miles} \times \frac{3.78 \ L}{1 \ gal} = \boxed{ \ 10.76 \ L \ } \ }

Thus the amount of gasoline would we need to buy to complete a 142 km trip in Europe is 10.76 L.

<h3>Answer: Everything but the lower right hand corner</h3>

==============================

Explanation:

Notice for the corners mentioned, we have the figures with corresponding angles that are the same (shown by similar arc markings) and they have congruent corresponding sides as well (aka they are the same length shown by similar tickmarks). Rotating one figure has it transform into the other.

The only time this does not happen is with the pair of figures in the bottom right hand corner. One square has side lengths of 20, the other has side lengths of 25. The two figures are not congruent due to the side mismatch.
