A large ship consumes 0.2 liters of fuel per km, and a smaller ship consumes 0.15 liters per km. If the large ship travels 500 km and the small ship travels 400 km, what is the total fuel cost at a rate of ₹110 per liter?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Fuel for the large ship = 0.2 × 500 = 100 liters

Fuel for the small ship = 0.15 × 400 = 60 liters

Total fuel = 100 + 60 = 160 liters

Total cost = 160 × 110 = ₹17,600
