Question

A vehicle covers a distance of 40km using 3 liters of fuel. How much fuel (in litters) is required if the vehicle has to cover only 30km?​

Answer 1

Answer:

2.25 litres of fuel

distance per litre of fuel =40/3=13.3333

so 30km=30÷13.33=2.25l

Answer 2

Given - Distance covered in 3 litre fuel = 40 km

Find - Fuel required for 30 km

Solution - As per the given information in question, to cover 40 kilometre distance fuel required is 3 litre.

So, the fuel required for covering 30 kilometre of distance is = (40/3)*30

Solving the given expression to find fuel requirement = 2.25 litre

Hence, if the vehicle has to cover only 30 kilometre the fuel (in litres) required is 2.25 litres.
