Question

Drove 260 km using 12 liters of gas at this rate how many liters of gas would he need to drive 286km

Answer 1

Answer:

We calculate the amount of gas used per km and multiply it by 286

Step-by-step explanation:

If we drive for 260km and use 12 litres of gas that means that we use

$\frac{12}{260}$ litres per km.

Now we multiply it by 286:

$\frac{12}{260} *286 = \frac{858}{65} = 13.2$

So, the answer is 13.2 litres.
