Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is 198km

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance covered is directly proportional to the litres of petrol.

Let a distance covered with 13.2 litres of petrol

So, ⇒5.5:13.2=82.5:a

Applying the rule, product of extremes = product of means

⇒5.5×a=13.2×82.5

⇒a=

5.5

13.2×82.5

⇒a=198

Hence, the distance covered with 13.2 litres of petrol is 198 km.
