Final answer:
To find the distance the car can travel on 1/5 liters of gasoline, convert 1/5 liters to gallons and then multiply by the conversion factor.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the distance the car can travel on 1/5 liters of gasoline, we need to use the given information that 12 gallons gives the number of kilometers the car can travel using gal liters of gasoline. First, we need to convert 1/5 liters to gallons. Since 1 gallon is approximately 3.79 liters, we can divide 1/5 by 3.79 to get the equivalent in gallons. Then, we can multiply the equivalent gallons by the conversion factor to find the distance the car can travel on 1/5 liters of gasoline.
Let's calculate:
1/5 liters = (1/5) / 3.79 gallons (approximately) ≈ 0.0526 gallons
Distance = 0.0526 gallons * 12 gal liters = 0.6312 kilometers (approximately)
