Question

A motorbike travels $220$ km in $5$ litres of petrol. How much distance will it cover in $1.5$ litres of petrol?

Answer 1

STEP 1 : Finding the distance travelled by motorbike in 1 litre petrol

Distance travelled by a motorbike in $5$ litres of petrol = $220km$

STEP 1 : Finding the distance travelled by motorbike in 1.5 litre petrol

Distance travelled by a motorbike in $1.5$ litres of petrol = $44\times 1.5=66km$

Hence, the travelled by a motorbike in $1.5$ litres of petrol is $66$ km.
