The car travelled 34.5 miles for each gallon of petrol used.
Petrol cost £1.08 per litre.
1 gallon = 4.55 litres.
Work out the cost of the petrol the car used in October

Respuesta :

Answer: £80

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate the number of gallons used by Sally. This will be:

= 560 / 34.5

= 16.23 gallons

Since 1 gallon = 4.55 litres, we calculate the number of liters and this will be:

= 16.23 × 4.55

= 73.85 liters

Since Petrol cost £1.08 per litre, the cost of the petrol will be:

= £1.08 × 73.85

= ££79.758

= £80 approximately
