Answer:

A boat would need 21 liters to cover the distance of 84 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A boat can travel 496 km on 124 liters of fuel.

To determine

How much fuel will it need to go 84 km?

It is stated that:

Distance covered in 124 liters of fuel = 496 km

Thus,

Unit rate = 496 km / 124 liters

= 4 km per liter

Thus,

The distance covered in 1 liter = 4km

In order to determine the distance covered in 84 km, all we need is to divide 84 km by 4.

i.e.

The fuel needed to go 84 km = 84 / 4 = 21 liters

Therefore, a boat would need 21 liters to cover the distance of 84 km.

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

262.12mph and 419kph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: It takes 4 hours and 15 minutes to fly from Orlando, Florida, to Boston, Massachusetts. The distance between the two cities is 1114 miles

To Find: the average speend of the plane in miles per hour, If every mile is approximately 1.6 kilometers, the speed of the airplane in kilometers per hour

Solution:

Distance between Orlando,Florida and Boston, Massachusetts $=1114$ $\text{miles}$

Time taken to cover the distance $=4\text{hours}$ and $15\text{minutes}$

We know that,

$\text{Average Speed}=\frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Total time}}$

$=\frac{1114}{\frac{17}{4}}$

$=\frac{1114\times4}{17}$

$=262.12$ $\text{mph}$

It is given that,

$1\text{mile}=1.6\text{kilometer}$

therefore,

$1\text{mph}=1.6\text{kph}$

Speed Of plane in Kilometers per hours $=\text{speed in mph}\times1.6$

$419.4\text{kph}$

Speed of in miles per hour is $262.12$ $\text{mph}$ and Speed in kilometer per hour $419.4\text{kph}$
