Answer:
Distance Covered = 432 km
Number of liters consumed = 36 liters
Therefore for 432 km, 36 liters of petrol is used. So for 25 liters how much would it cover ?
=> 432 km : 36 l :: x km : 25 l
Product of Means = Product of Extremes
=> 432 × 25 = 36 × x
=> 10800 = 36x
=> x = 10800 / 36
=> x = 300
Hence the distance covered by car with 25 liters of petrol is 300 km.

In 36 litres=432 km
in 1 litre = 432/36
in 25 litre=432/36*25=300km
in 1 litre = 432/36
in 25 litre=432/36*25=300km
