in 2006 the cost of fuel was 91.8 cents per litre. calculate them maximum number of whole litres that could be bought for 15 dollars
To calculate the maximum number of whole liters that could be bought for $15, we need to divide the total amount of money by the cost of fuel per liter.
The cost of fuel in 2006 was 91.8 cents per liter, which is equivalent to 0.918 dollars per liter.
So, $15 divided by 0.918 dollars per liter gives us:
$15 / $0.918 = 16.349 liters
Since we cannot purchase a fraction of a liter, the maximum number of whole liters that could be bought for $15 is 16 liters.
