Question

Raj travels 360 km on three fifths of his petrol tank. How far would he travel at the same rate with a full tank of petrol?

Sum

Solution

Given, Raj travels 360 km on three-fifths of his petrol tank.

∴ Total distance travelled = Reciprocal of `3/5 xx 360` km

= `5/3 xx 360`

= 5 × 120

= 600 km

Hence, total distance travelled by Raj from the available petrol tank is 600 km.
