Questions & Answers

QUESTION:

A hybrid SUV consumes fuel at a rate of 12.8 km/L. How many miles can the car travel on 22.5 gal of gasoline?

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 2

Here, we have to calculate the miles that the car travel by using 22. 5gal of gasoline.

The car consumes fuel at a rate = 12.8 km/L

Fuel required by the car = 22.5 gal

We know

1 gal = 3.78541 L

Thus, Fuel required by the car = 22.5 gal x  = 85.17 L

Therefore, the distance travelled by the car = Mileage of the car x Fuel consumed by the car

                                = 12.8   85.17 L

                                = 1090.18 Km

Distance travelled by the car is = 1090.18 km
