Question

Your car gets 32.4 miles/gallons and your tank holds 14.25 gallons of gas.

How far can you go, in miles. on one tank of gas?

if gas cost $2.11 per gallon, how much will one tank of gas cost?

How much will it cost in euros to drive 1200 km?Gas cost E1.20 per liter and there are $1.09 in 1.00E.

Answer 1

€€a) Your full tank of gas will let you travel
(32.4 mi/gal)*(14.25 gal) = 461.7 mi

b)The cost of that tank of gas is
(14.25 gal)*($2.11/gal) = $30.07

c) The cost in Euros can be figured from

`(1\,gal)/(32.4\,mi)\cdot (\$2.11)/(1\,gal)\cdot (1.00\,Euros)/(\$1.09)\cdot (1\,mi)/(1.609344\,km)\cdot(1200\,km)\\\\=(2.11\cdot1200)/(32.4\cdot1.09\cdot1.609344)\,Euros\\\\=44.55\,Euros`

The cost is €44.55 for 1200 km.
