    242 lts de fuel

    Explanation:

    We know density of fuel (is variable) but we can say that is close to 1 Kg/lts.

    If we have 110 pounds over maximun certificated gross weight, we need to get rid of that 110 pounds or 110 * 2.2 = 242 Kgs

    Now by rule of three

    If 1 lt weight 1 kg.

    x 242 kgs

    x = 242 lts de fuel
