Question

A hybrid SUV consumes fuel at a rate of a rate of 12.8 km/L. how many miles can the car travel on 22.5 gal of gasoline?

Answer 1

We know

1.6 km = 1 mi

Let's convert the mileage into miles.

So, the SUV goes 8 miles per 1 liter of gasoline.

We know

3.785 liters = 1 gallon

Let's convert the mileage into gallons.

`(8mi)/(L)*\frac{3.785L}{1\text{gal}}=(30.28mi)/(gal)`

So, the SUV goes 30.28 miles per gallon.

We need to know the number of miles the SUV will travel in 22.5 gallons of gasoline.

So,

30.28 x 22.5 = 681.30 miles

Answer681.30 miles
