The cost is £79.76. Since the car covers 560 miles and 34.5 miles is travelled by one gallon. So, dividing 560 by 34.5 we get 16.23. Since 1 gallon is 4.55 litres, 16.23 gallons is 73.8465. Now the cost of petrol is £1.08 per litre. So, multiplying 73.8465 by £1.08 we have £79.76
The cost of petrol the car used in October is;
Amount spent on fuel in October = £79.76
Distance sally drove in October = 560 miles
She used 1 gallon of petrol for every 34.5 miles she drove.
Thus, number of gallons of petrol she used for the month of October on the car = 560/34.5 gallons
Now, we are told that;
1 gallon = 4.55 litres
Thus; 560/34.5 gallons = (560/34.5) × 4.55/1
Quantity of petrol she used for the month in liters = 73.855 litres
Petrol costs £1.08 per liter.
