Question

A bus runs 540 kilometers on 36liters of diesel . How many kilometers can it run on 45liters

Answer 1

Answer:

Clearly it is in direct proportion. Let Km be x

540:36::x:45

x=(540×45)/36

x=675

Answer 2

Answer,

for 1 litre the bus can run= 540÷36

= 15 km.

In 45 litres it can run = 45×15

=675 km.

Hence, the bus can run 675 kilometres for 45 litres of diesel.
