Question

A vehicle covers a distance of 43.2 km in 2.4 litres of petrol. How much distance will it cover in one litre of petrol?

Sum

Solution

Distance covered in 2.4 litres of petrol = 43.2 km

∴ Distance covered in 1 litre of petrol = 43.2 ÷ 2.4

= `432/10 ÷ 24/10`

= `432/10 xx 10/24`

= 18

Therefore, the vehicle will cover 18 km in 1 litre petrol.
