Question

0 Attempti ion 29 of 36 While driving your rental car on your vacation in Europe, you find that you are getting 11.6 km/L of gasoline. What does this value correspond to in miles per gallon? 11.6 km/L32.625 mi gal

Answer 1

$1\ mile =1.609\ km$

$1\ gal =3.785\ L$

$11.6\frac{km}{L}=11.6\frac{km}{L}*1*1$

$11.6\frac{km}{L}=11.6\frac{km}{L}*\frac{1miles}{1.609km}*\frac{3.785L}{1gal}$

$11.6\frac{km}{L}=11.6\frac{{\color{Red} km}}{{\color{Blue} L}}*\frac{1miles}{1.609{\color{Red} km}}*\frac{3.785{\color{Blue} L}}{1gal}$

$11.6\frac{km}{L}=11.6*\frac{1miles}{1.609}*\frac{3.785}{1gal}$

$11.6\frac{km}{L}=11.6*\frac{3.785}{1.609}*\frac{miles}{gal}$

$11.6\frac{km}{L}=27.29\frac{miles}{gal}$

${\color{Red} ANSWER: =27.29\ mi/gal}$
