Solution

The correct option is C 6
Price of petrol per litre = Rs. 90
Quantity of petrol we can buy in Rs. 270 = $\frac{270}{90}$ = 3 L
It is given that the small gallon gets filled with petrol bought for Rs. 270.
That means, capacity of the gallon = 3 L
So, the total quantity of petrol in 2 such gallons = 3 L x 2 = 6 L
