Question

The dimensions of a car petrol tank are 50 cm × 32 cm × 24 cm, which is full of petrol. If a car's average consumption is 15 km per liter, find the maximum distance that can be covered by the car. 

Sum

Solution

The dimensions of a car petrol tank are: 50 cm x 32 cm x 24 cm
Volume of the tank = 38400 cm3
We know that 1000 cm3 = 1 litre

Thus the volume of the tank = `(38400)/(1000)` = 38.4 litres

The average consumption of the car = 15 km/ litre

Thus, the total distance that can be covered by the car = 38.4 x 15 = 576 km
