Question (2) If your car

gets 27.8 miles to the gallon, how many liters of gasoline are necessary to travel 112 km?
This problem can be solved in short steps or in one longer step. In either case, please show your work.
Use the following conversion factors:
1 mi = 1.609 km
1 gal = 3.785 L
PLEASE HELP!!!!
