Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To convert miles per gallon to kilometers per liter, we need to use the following conversion factors: 
1 mile = 1.609 kilometers
1 gallon = 3.785 liters

So, Karen's car gets 27 miles per gallon, which is equivalent to (27 x 1.609) kilometers per (1 x 3.785) liters.

Simplifying this expression, we get:

(27 x 1.609) kilometers per (1 x 3.785) liters 
= 43.45 kilometers per 3.785 liters 
= 11.48 kilometers per liter (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, the correct answer is B, 11.5 km/liter.
