Question
A car can travel 240 km in 15 litres of petrol. How much distance will it travel in 25 litres of petrol?
Solution
Given, Distance travel by a car in 15 L = 240 km
Distance travel by a car in 1 L = `240/15` = 16 km
∴ Distance travel by a car in 25 L = 16 × 25 = 400 km
Hence, a car will travel 400 km in 25 L.
