95            X

5x=95<12>

5x=1140

x=1140/5

x=228

Answer 2

Answer:

228 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Kilometres travelled using 5 litres of petrol = 95 km

Kilometres travelled using 1 litre of petrol = 95/5 = 19 km

Therefore, kilometres travelled using 12 litres of petrol = 19 * 12 = 228 km

Therefore a car will travel 228 km if it consumes 12 litres of petrol
