Question

A car consumes $8$ litres of petrol in covering distance of $100km$. How many kilometers will it travel in $26$ litres of petrol?

Answer 1

Given that distance covered by car in $8$ litres of petrol $=$$100km$

Divide both side by $8$

distance covered by car in $1$ litre of petrol $=$$\frac{100}{8}km$

Multiply both side by $26$

distance covered by car in $26$ litres of petrol $=$$\frac{100}{8}\times 26km=325km$

Hence, A car will cover a distance of $325km$ in $26$ litres of petrol.
