Answers
Answer:
John's bike covers a distance of 99.2 km per 1.6 liters of petrol if one liter of petrol costs ₹70.2. So, John needs rupees 210 to buy petrol that is required to cover a distance of 186 km.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: John's bike covers a distance of 99.2 km per 1.6 liters of petrol.
Step 1: Find the Amount of petrol needed to cover 1 km
Amount of petrol needed to cover 1 km
= 1.6 ÷ 99.2
= 16/10 × 10/992
= 1/62 liters
Step 2: Find the amount of petrol needed to cover 186 km.
Amount of petrol needed to cover 186 km
= 1/62×186
= 3 liters
Step 3: Cost of 3-liter petrol
1 liter of petrol cost rupees ₹ 70.2
Therefore, the cost of 3 liters of petrol = 3×70.2 = 210.6
So, John needs rupees 210 to buy petrol that is required to cover a distance of 186 km.
