    Step-by-step explanation:

    1. A car requires 22 litres of petrol to travel a distance of 259.6 km

    what is the distance that the car can travel on 63 ltr of petrol

    22ltr = 259.6km

    63ltr=

    cross multiply

    {63 x 259.6}/22 = 16354.8/22 = 743.4 km

    A car requires 22 litres of petrol to travel a distance of 259.6 km, it would require 63 ltr of petrol to travel 743.4km

    2. To travel a distance of 2013.2 km

    we would need to calculate the amount of fuel

    A car requires 22 litres of petrol to travel a distance of 259.6 km

    what amount of fuel would it require to travel 2013.2km

    22ltr = 259.6km

    xltr = 2013.2km

    x is the value of petrol to cover 2013.2km

    cross multiply

    (2013.2 x 22) / 259.6

    44290.4/259.6 = 170.610169492≈170.6 ltr

    A car requires 22 litres of petrol to travel a distance of 259.6 km, it would require 170.6 ltr of petrol to travel 2013.2km

    if 1ltr is $1.99

    170.6 ltr is (170.6 x 1.99) / 1 = $339.494≈$339.5

    The price of fuel consumed for 2013.2 km at 1 liter of petrol at $1.99 is $339.5
