Problem # 1.5

Estimate the number of liters of gasoline used by all Pakistan’s each year. Given:

Number cars in Pakistan = 500000

Average distance covered by the each car = 16000 Km

Rate of Consumption of gasoline = 6 Km/liter.

 

Solution:

Total distance covered by an equivalent car = (500000) (16000)

= 8000000000 = 8 × 109 km

Total liters of gasoline consumed =

Total distance covered/Rate of consumption

= 8000000000/6

=1.333 × 109 liter
