Answer 1

(b) 950 km

(c) 90 litres

(d) $108

Explanation:

Henry lives 95 km from work.

Number of km from home to work = 95 km

Number of km from work to home = 95 km

One day = 95 + 95 = 190 km

Assuming he works 5 days a week.

1 day = 190 km

5 days = 190 x 5 = 950 km

Assuming he works 5 days a week.

1 day = 18 litres

5 days = 18 x 5 = 90 litres.

Assuming he works 5 days a week.

1 litre = 120 cents

90 litres = 120 x 90 = 10800 cents = $108
