Answer
Given:
Dimensions of tank = 50 cm x 32 cm x 24 cm
Volume of tank = 50 x 32 x 24 cm3
= 38,400 cm3
= 38.4 litre (∵ 100 cm3 = 1 litre)
Average consumption of car = 15 km per litre
Maximum distance covered by car = Volume of tank x Average consumption of car
= 38.4 x 15
= 576 km
Hence, the maximum distance that can be covered by the car is 576 km.
