600 miles.....25 miles per gallon...
600/25 = 24 gallons are used

1 gallon = 3.78541 liters....then 24 gallons = (24 * 3.78541) = 90.84984 liters

at 1.12 per liter = (1.12 * 90.84984) = 101.75 <=

Answer:


\$101.66

Explanation:

Distance traveled by car in
1 gallon =
25 miles

We know,
1 gallon = 3.78 liter

Distance traveled by car in
1 liter =
(25)/(3.78) = 6.61miles

Gas required for
600 miles =
(600)/(6.61) = 90.77liter

Price of
1 liter of gas =
\$1.12

Cost of gasoline to drive
600 miles =
90.77*1.12 = \$101.66
