A certain hybrid car can travel 1 4/11 times as far as a similar non hybrid car can, each on one gallon of gasoline. If the non hybrid car can travel 33 miles per gallon of gasoline how far can the hybrid travel on 4/5 gallon of gasoline?

Answer:

On 4/5 gallon of gasoline, hybrid car will travel 36 miles of distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, non hybrid car travel "x" distance in 1 gallon of gasoline

then, hybrid will travel " 1 4/11* x" distance in 1 gallon of gasoline

Given that, non hybrid car travel, x = 33 miles per gallon

Then, hybrid car travel, 1 4/11*x = 1 4/11* 33 = 45 miles per gallon

On 1 gallon of gasoline hybrid car travel= 45 miles

On 4/5 gallon of gasoline hybrid car will travel= 4/5*45= 36 miles

On 4/5 gallon of gasoline, hybrid car will travel 36 miles of distance.
