Sathish is going on a 2000 kilometer road trip with two friends. The car consumes 6 liters of gas for every 100 kilometers, and gas costs $1.20 per liter.

6*1.20 is the cost in dollars per 100 kilometers. If each friend pays for one third (666.66 repeating kilometers), then they would have to pay (6*1.20)*6.66 repeating which equates to $48 per person and $144 total.
