A car travels 168.75 km in 12.5 litres of petrol . Find the distance travelled by the car in 15 litres

12.5 litres takes the car 168.75 km

then 1 L takes the car 168.75/12.5 km
then 15 L will take the car .....

To find the distance traveled by the car in 15 liters of petrol, we can use the concept of proportions.

First, let's determine the distance traveled per liter of petrol. We can do this by dividing the distance traveled by the amount of petrol consumed.

Distance per liter = 168.75 km / 12.5 liters = 13.5 km/liter

Now, we can use this rate to find the distance traveled in 15 liters of petrol:

Distance traveled = Distance per liter × Amount of petrol

Distance traveled = 13.5 km/liter × 15 liters

Distance traveled = 202.5 km

Therefore, the car would travel 202.5 km in 15 liters of petrol.
