bryanteeuwen Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 ken has a truck that uses 9L of fuel on each trip he takes to prestonvillie, If the distance he travels is 126km, determine his vehicle's rate of fuel consumption in litres/100km. express your answer correct to one decimal place where necessary.

andrusk Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 (edited) if he goes 100km he will use 7.14 litres. You get the 7.14 from croos multiplying 9/126 with x/100, then you get 126x = 900, then to get x you do 126x/126= 900/126, and you get x = 7.14 therefore, his rate of consumption for Litres/100km would be 7.14/100 Edited October 21, 2004 by andrusk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
