You can put this solution on YOUR website!
driving at an average speed of v=50+%28miles%2F+hour%29 the trip will take t=22+hours
s=vt
s=50%28miles%2Fhour%2922hour

s=50%28miles%2Fcross%28hour%29%2922cross%28hour%29
s=50%2A22miles
s=1100miles............the number of miles one way

1100miles=1770.2784000000001km.......the total distance from miles to kilometers


if the family car uses 6.3+L of gas per 100km, for distance 1770.2784000000001km they will need
%28%286.3L%2Fcross%28km%29%29%281770.2784000000001cross%28km%29%29%2F100%29%29

=%286.3L%2917.702784000000001=111.53L..of gas are needed
