Answer:

The mileage of the car is 51.75 mil/gal.

Explanation:

Distance covered by the car = 275 km = [tex]\frac{275}{1.609} mile[/tex]

1 Mile = 1.609 kilometer

Volume of gasoline used by the car = 12.5 L =[tex]\frac{12.5}{3.785} gal[/tex]

1 gallon = 3.785 Liter

Mileage of the car :

= [tex]\frac{\frac{275}{1.609} mile}{\frac{12.5}{3.785} gal}[/tex]

[tex]=51.75 mil/gal[/tex]

The mileage of the car is 51.75 mil/gal.
