Answer:
Total Cost of Week = 81.20 Euros
Total Cost of Week (in dollars) = $102.31
Step-by-step explanation:
117 km per day
You drive 7 days
So,
Total miles driven = 117 * 7 = 819 km
Mileage is 42 miles per gallon. So how many gallons would it require to drive 819 km?
819/42 = 19.5 gallons
We know 1 gallons = 3.78 liters
So,
19.5 gallons would be:
19.5 * 3.78 = 73.82 liters
1.10 Euro PER LITER, so the total cost:
Total Cost of Week = 73.82 * 1.10 = 81.20 Euros
In dollars (1 euro = 1.26 dollars):
Total Cost of Week (in dollars) = 81.20 * 1.26 = $102.31
The cost on gas is approximately 7.2 euros
Data given;
- Distance = 117km
- rate of consumption = 42.0 mi/gal
- cost of gas = 1.10 euros
Conversion of distance from km to miles
If 1mi = 1.609km
And we cover 117km daily, let's convert this into miles
[tex]1mi=1.62km\\ x mi = 117km\\ x = 117/1.62\\ x = 72.2mi[/tex]
This shows that we cover a distance of 72.2 miles daily.
But the car consumes 1 gallon in 42 miles, let's calculate the gas required to cover 72.2 miles
[tex]42mi = 1g\\ 72.2mi =x\\ x = 72.2/42\\ x = 1.719[/tex]
The total gas consumed daily is approximately 1.72 gallons.
Cost of gas daily
The cost of gas daily can be calculated from the data given but we have to convert the volume from gallon to liter
Gallon - Liter
1L = 0.26 gallon
xL = 1.72 gallons
cross multiply this and solve for x
[tex]x = \frac{1*1.72}{0.26}\\ x = 6.6[/tex]
This shows that we consume 6.6L daily.
But we were given that the cost of 1 liter of gas is equal to 1.10 euros
1L = 1.10 euros
6.6L = x euros
[tex]x = \frac{1.1*6.6}{1}\\ x = 7.26[/tex]
The cost of gas daily is 7.26 euros or approximately 7.2 euros.
