1750 litres of petrol is required to fill the tanks of 50 cars. If 1960 litres of petrol is available, how many more cars can be filled?

Respuesta :

1750 litres.............50 cars

1960 litres.............n cars

so n x 1750 = 1960 x 50

n = 98000 : 1750

n = 56

56 cars tanks will be filled

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

1750 divided by 50 to find out how much litres each car gets. =35

so 35 litres per car so divide 1960 by 35. =56

56 cars can be filled

CHECK ANSWER.

the six extra cars so 35 multiplied by 6. =210

1750+210=1960!
