Question 906101: You are reading a letter from you pen pal in Europe and he tells you how excited that his new car has a fuel efficiency of 140 kilometers per liter. In order to understand his excitement, you need to convert the fuel efficiency to miles per gallon. Answer by josgarithmetic(39623) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Use these unit conversion ratios:
1000 meters = 1 kilometer
100 cm = 1 meter
2.54 cm = 1 inch
12 inches = 1 foot
1 mile = 5280 feet
(That was just for the distance part, unless you know a shortuct);
3.7854 liters = 1 gallon
