2. A car has 60 litres of fuel in the tank. After a long journey, only 22% of the fuel is left. The

driver puts another 30 litres into the tank, and uses 25% of the fuel in the tank over the
following day. How much fuel is now in the tank?​

Answer 1

32.4 liters

Explanation:

Given that

There is 60 litres of fuel in the tank

After a long journey, 22% would fuel is left

The driver put another 30 liters and use 25% of the fuel

We need to find out how much fuel is now in the tank

Since 22% fuel is left i.e.

= 60 liters × 0.22

= 13.2 liters

He put another 30 liters

SO, now the total fuel available is

= 13.2 + 30

= 43.2 liters

It used 25% of the fuel that means 75% would remain left

So,

= 43.2 liters × 0.75

= 32.4 liters
