A vehicle covers a distance of $43.2\ km$ in $2.4$ litres of petrol. How much distance will it travel in $1$ litre of petrol$?$
Answer
Distance covered in $2.4$ litres of petrol $= 43.2\ km$
Distance covered in $1$ litre of petrol $=\frac{43.2}{2.4}$
$=18\text{km}$
The distance travelled in $1$ litre of petrol is $18\ km$
According to the question, we need to subtract $3.547$ from $7.2$ On converting the given decimals to like decimals,
we get the new decimals as $3.547$ and $7.200$
Let us now subtract them. $7.200 - 3.547 = 3.653$
