Given :

  • A car requires 25 liters of petrol to travel the distance of 265 km.

To Find :

  • Distance that car can travel in 58 liters of petrol.

Answer :

  • Car can travel 614.8 km in 58 litres of petrol.

Solution :

Distance travelled by car in 25 L of petrol = 265 km

 \sf : \implies Distance \: travelled\: by\: car\: in \: 1 \: L \: of \: petrol = \dfrac{265}{25} \: km

 \sf : \implies Distance \: travelled\: by\: car\: in \: 1 \: L \: of \: petrol = \cancel{\dfrac{265}{25}} \: km

 \sf : \implies Distance \: travelled\: by\: car\: in \: 1 \: L \: of \: petrol = \dfrac{53}{5} \: km

Now, we have to find distance that car can travel in 58 liters of petrol.

 \sf : \implies Distance \: travelled\: by\: car\: in \: 58 \: L \: of \: petrol = 58 \times distance \: travelled\: by\: car\: in \: 1 \: L \: of \: petrol

 \sf : \implies Distance \: travelled\: by\: car\: in \: 58 \: L \: of \: petrol = 58 \times \dfrac{53}{5} \: km

 \sf : \implies Distance \: travelled\: by\: car\: in \: 58 \: L \: of \: petrol = \dfrac{3074}{5} \: km

 \sf : \implies Distance \: travelled\: by\: car\: in \: 58 \: L \: of \: petrol = 614.8 \: km

Therefore, Car can travel 614.8 km in 58 litres of petrol.
