Zorluk: KolayFuel Efficiency and Range

During a training exercise, an army jeep travels at a constant fuel consumption rate of 14 miles per gallon. If the jeep starts with exactly 8 gallons of fuel in its tank, what is the maximum number of miles the jeep can travel before running out of gas?

Cevap: 112 miles

Cevap

112
The correct answer is found by multiplying the fuel efficiency rate (14 miles per gallon) by the amount of fuel in the tank (8 gallons). 14 * 8 equals 112 miles.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the given values
Fuel efficiency = 14 miles per gallon, Fuel available = 8 gallons
These are the necessary components to calculate total distance.
2
Calculate the total distance
14 * 8 = 112 miles
Distance is the product of the rate of fuel consumption (miles per gallon) and the total amount of fuel (gallons).

Anahtar Kavram
