Question

Jon and Noe are trying to determine whose car they should take down to Las Vegas (865 miles away). Jon's tricked out Nissan Sentra Coupe gets 28 miles per gallon, while Noe's Cayman Porsche uses an average of 10. Liters for every 100. Km. Which car should they take and why?

Answer 1

Nissan mileage = 28 miles/gallon

1 mile = 1.609344 kilometer and 1 gallon = 3.78541 liter.

Nissan mileage = 28 × 1.609344/3.78541 kilometer/liter

Nissan mileage = 11.90 kilometer/liter

Cayman Porsche uses an average of 10 liters for every 100 km.

Cayman Porsche mileage = 100/10 kilometer/liter = 10 kilometer/liter

The Nissan Sentra Coupe will give more mileage at 11.90 kilometers per liter so it will be economic.
