Suppose that you learn, prior to your trip to British Columbia, that gasoline will cost $1.50 (in Canadian dollars) for every liter you purchase. You know from checking the Internet that 1 liter is equivalent to 0.26 gallons and the currency conversion rate for the Canadian dollar is about .98 U.S. dollars. How much will gasoline cost you, per gallon in U.S. dollars, for your trip

1 L ---> 1.50 CND

= 1.5(.98) = 1.47 US

.26 gallons ---> 1.47 US
1 gallon ---> 1.47/.26 = 5.65 US

(Yesterday, in Ontario I paid $1.163 /L
and the dollar was at par,
and there are 3.79 L in a US gallon
so in $US , cost per gallon = 3.79(1.163) = $4.41)

i want to see the answer to this question

1 liter is $1.64

How much per us gal?

To calculate the cost of gasoline per gallon in U.S. dollars for your trip, you need to perform a few simple calculations.

1. Convert the cost of gasoline from Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars:
- The cost of gasoline in Canadian dollars is $1.50 per liter.
- Use the currency conversion rate of 0.98 U.S. dollars per Canadian dollar.
- Multiply the cost of gasoline in Canadian dollars by the currency conversion rate to get the cost in U.S. dollars: $1.50 * 0.98 = $1.47.

2. Convert liters to gallons:
- From the information given, 1 liter is equivalent to 0.26 gallons.
- Divide the cost of gasoline in U.S. dollars by the number of gallons: $1.47 / 0.26 = $5.65 (approximately).

Therefore, the cost of gasoline for your trip to British Columbia will be approximately $5.65 per gallon in U.S. dollars.
