Question

5. A car can cover a distance of 357 km on 42 litres of petrol. How far can it travel on 12 litres of petrol​

Answer 1

Answer:

102 km

Step-by-step explanation:

42 l = 357 km

or, 1 l = 357 km/42

or, 1 l = 8.5 km

or, 12 l = 8.5 km * 12

or, 12 l = 102 km

Answer 2

Answer:

The distance cover by car on 42 liters of petrol = 357 km

The distance cover by car on 1 liter of petrol = (357/42) km

∴The distance cover by car on 12 liters of petrol = (357/42) × (12)

= 102 km
