Question

A car requires 45 liters of petrol to travel a distance of 330 km.

Answer 1

Answer:

1) The car can travel 623.3 km with 85 liters of petrol.

2) The car owner has to pay $303.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The distance traveled with 85 L of petrol can be found as follows:

$d = \frac{330 km}{45 L}*85 L = 623.3 km$

Hence, the car can travel around 623 km with 85 liters of petrol.

2) If the liter of petrol costs $2.25, then the amount of petrol that the car owner has to pay to travel a distance of 990 km is:

$x = \frac{\ 2.25}{1 L}*\frac{45 L}{330 km}*990 km = \ 303.8$

Therefore, the car owner has to pay $303.8.

I hope it helps you!
