\r\n" );
document.write( "The boat can travel  = 4 miles consuming 1 liter of gasoline.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "432 miles is  = 108 times four miles.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Hence, the boat will consume 108 liters of gasoline to travel 432 miles.\r\n" );
