Question

If $12$ litre diesel is consumed by a car in covering a distance of $222km,$ how many ${}^{\prime }k{m}^{\prime }$ will it go in $22$ litre of diesel.

Answer 1

Given: In $12$ litre of diesel, a car can go $222km$.

So, In $1$ litre diesel a car can go

$\frac{222}{12}km=\frac{111}{6}km=18.5km$

Therefore,

In $22$ litre diesel a car can go $=18.5\times 22km=407km$

Hence, in 22 liters, a car can go 407 km.
