Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If a tank uses 15 liters of fuel to travel 100 km, how much fuel will it need to travel 250 km? (2023)
  • Step 1: Identify how much fuel the tank uses for a specific distance. The tank uses 15 liters of fuel to travel 100 km.
  • Step 2: Determine the distance you want to travel. In this case, it is 250 km.
  • Step 3: Set up the formula to calculate the fuel needed. The formula is: Fuel needed = (Fuel per 100 km) × (Distance / 100).
  • Step 4: Plug in the values into the formula. You have 15 liters for 100 km and you want to find out for 250 km.
  • Step 5: Calculate the distance factor. Divide 250 km by 100 km, which equals 2.5.
  • Step 6: Multiply the fuel per 100 km by the distance factor. So, 15 liters × 2.5 = 37.5 liters.
  • Step 7: Round the result to the nearest whole number if needed. 37.5 liters rounds to 40 liters.
