Suppose your truck gets 19.7 miles/gallon and the fuel tank holds 68.4 liters of gasoline (1 liter= 0.26 gallons). Could you drive a distance of 322 miles, without stopping for gas?

Step 1:
How many gallons of gas do you have?
68.4 liters * (0.26 gallons/liter) = 17.8 gallons
Step 2:
How many miles can you travel on that much fuel?
19.7 miles/gallon * (17.8 gallons) = 350 miles
:
Since 350 miles is more than 322, you can safely drive 322 miles without stopping for gas.
Hope that helps!
