Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

turn them into mixed fractions for easier calculations.

2565/4= 345/8

             =8/8

cross multiply

2565/4 *8/8=

2565/4/345/8=

2565/4*8/345=

14.86956522 or 14 whole 20/23

Answer 2

14 whole 20/23

Step-by-step explanation:

DISTANCE THE CAR COVER =641 WHOLE1/4 - 2565/4 KM

QUANTITY OF FUEL= 43 WHOLE1/4 - 345/8

THEREFORE THE DISTANCE COVER IN 1 LITRE OF FUEL = 2565/4÷345/8

=2565/4 × 8/345

=513/1×8/69

=171/1×2/23

=342/23

=14 WHOLE 20/23

HENCE,THR DISTANCE COVERS IN 1 LITRE OF PETROL IS 14 WHOLE20/23
