If a car covers 75.5 km in 3.5 litres of petrol, how much distance (in km) will it cover in 28 litres of petrol?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 604
The question says,
A car covers 75.5 km in 3.5 liters of petrol.
Thus, we can calculate how much fuel the car uses to travel a km.
⇒ 75.5 km / 3.5 ltr
⇒ 151km / 7 ltr ~ 21.57km/ltr -------- (i)
Thus, to know how much distance the car will cover, in 28 liters of fuel, we will multiply 28 with the equation above.
⇒ × 28
⇒ 604 km
