Answer:
In 0.3 gallon of fuel, the car will travel 20 km.
A is the correct option.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that in 1 gallon of fuel the car can travel 40 miles.
Now, 1 mile = 1.6 km.
Hence, in 1 gallon the car travel 40×1.6 = 64 km
Let the car will consume x gallons of fuel to travel 20 km.
Thus, we have the equation
[tex]\frac{1}{64}=\frac{x}{20}[/tex]
ON solving for x
[tex]x=\frac{20}{64}\\\\x=0.3[/tex]
Therefore, in 0.3 gallon of fuel, the car will travel 20 km.
A is the correct option.
