American car travels 32 miles on 1 gallon of gas European car travels 12.7 km on 1 L of gas which car gets better gas mileage explain your reasoning

Answer: the American car gets better gas mileage.

Step-by-step explanation:

American car travels 32 miles on 1 gallon of gas. This means that its gas mileage is 32 miles per gallon.

European car travels 12.7 km on 1 L of gas. We would convert 12.7 km to miles.

1 kilometer = 0.621 mile

12.7 kilometer = 12.7 * 0.621 = 7.8867 miles

We would also convert 1 L to gallons.

1 liter = 0.264 us gallons

Therefore, the gas mileage of the European car in miles per gallon would be

7.8867/0.264 = 29.87 miles per gallon.

Therefore, since 32 miles per gallon is greater than 29.87 miles per gallon, it means that the American car gets better gas mileage.

The American car because 32 miles = 51.5 km and since it uses a gallon which is 3.785l you divide the 51.5 by 3.785 which gives you 13.376km per liter which is more that 12.7 (European)
