Car A consumes 0.075 liters/km, Car B consumes 0.082 liters/km. Car A: 415.5 liters, Car B: 455.28 liters for 5540 km.

For car "A":

Gasoline consumption per kilometer =
\( \frac{7.5 \, \text{liters}}{100 \, \text{km}} = 0.075 \, \text{liters per kilometer} \)

For car "B":

Gasoline consumption per kilometer =
\( \frac{8.2 \, \text{liters}}{100 \, \text{km}} = 0.082 \, \text{liters per kilometer} \)

To calculate the total gasoline consumption for each car over a 5540-kilometer journey:

For car "A":

Total gasoline consumption = Gasoline consumption per kilometer × Total kilometers


\( = 0.075 \, \text{liters per kilometer} * 5540 \, \text{km} = 415.5 \, \text{liters} \)

For car "B":

Total gasoline consumption = Gasoline consumption per kilometer × Total kilometers


\( = 0.082 \, \text{liters per kilometer} * 5540 \, \text{km} = 455.28 \, \text{liters} \)

Therefore, over a 5540-kilometer journey, car "A" consumes approximately 415.5 liters of gasoline, while car "B" consumes approximately 455.28 liters of gasoline. Car "A" proves to be more fuel-efficient, consuming less gasoline than car "B" for the same distance traveled.

Question:

Car "A" consumes 7.5 liters of gasoline per 100 kilometers, while car "B" consumes 8.2 liters per 100 kilometers. To find the consumption per kilometer for each car, divide the consumption for 100 kilometers by 100.
