The car you are driving has a 45L tank of gas.
if the car uses 9.7L of gas per 100km, how far can you go on a tank of gas?
----------------
9.7/100 = 45/d
9.7d = 4500
d = 4500/9.7 =~ 463.9 km
==============
Cars in Europe use these units for fuel consumption, "Liters per 100 km"
Smaller numbers are better.
