To find out how many kilometers the motorcycle can travel on 1 gallon of gasoline, we start with the given distance of 35 miles per gallon. We will convert miles to kilometers using the conversion factor of 1 mile = 1.609 kilometers.
-
Convert miles to kilometers: \[ \text{Distance in kilometers} = \text{Distance in miles} \times \text{Conversion factor} \]
Substituting the known values: \[ \text{Distance in kilometers} = 35 , \text{miles} \times 1.609 , \text{km/mile} \]
-
Perform the calculation: \[ \text{Distance in kilometers} = 35 \times 1.609 \] \[ \text{Distance in kilometers} = 56.315 \]
-
Round to the nearest whole number: Rounding 56.315 to the nearest whole number gives us 56.
Therefore, the motorcycle can travel approximately 56 kilometers on 1 gallon of gasoline.
