Respuesta :

9 liters of fuel covered   81 km

1 liter of fuel would have covered  81/9  km  = 9 km

22 liters of fuel would then cover   =   22 * 9  =  198 km.

Answer

Find out the how many kilometers (x) she can drive on 22 liters of fuel .

To prove

As given

Eliana drove her car 81 km and used 9 liters of fuel .

She assumes her car will continue consuming fuel at the same rate .

9 litres = 81 km

[tex]1 litre = \frac{81}{9} km[/tex]

1litre = 9 km

Thus in 1 litre of fuel Eliana drove her car 9 km .

for the 22 litre of fuel .

22 litre =  22 × 9  

            = 198 km

Therefore 198 km Eliana can drive on 22 liters of fuel.
