Question

A vehicle covers a distance of 43.2km in 2.4 litres of petrol. how much distance will it cover in one litre of petrol.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We use basic multiplication and division of decimals to solve the problem given.

By using unitary method, we can simply divide 43.2 by 2.4 to get how much distance will the vehicle cover in 1 liter of petrol.

Distance covered in 2.4 litre of petrol = 43.2 km

Distance covered in 1 litre of petrol = 43.2 / 2.4

= 432/10 × 10/24

= 18 km

Thus, it covers a distance of 18 km in 1 liter of petrol.

Answer 2

18km distance

Step by step explanation:-

❖Given:-

• A vehicle covers distance of 43.2km in 2.4 litres of petrol.

________________________

❖To Find:-

• Distance covered in 1 litre petrol

________________________

❖Concept used here:-

• Unitary method

________________________

❖Solution:-

$\large\sf \purple : \green\mapsto{ \frac{43.2}{2.4} }$

$\large\sf \purple : \green\mapsto{ \cancel \frac{43.2}{2.4} } = 18 km$

∴The distance covered in 1 litre petrol is 18km.
