First, we need to convert the 15 gallons to liters. Since 1 gallon is equal to 3.78541 liters, we have:
15 gallons * 3.78541 liters/gallon = 56.79 liters
Therefore, the tank had 56.79 liters of gas before the trip.
Since Philippe used 33 liters of gas during the trip, we can subtract that from the initial amount:
56.79 liters - 33 liters = 23.79 liters
Therefore, Philippe had approximately 23.79 liters of gas left in the tank when he arrived in Paris.
Philippe had an American car imported into France. On a trip to Paris he used 33 liters of gas. The tank, which he filled before starting the trip, holds 15 gallons of gas. How many liters of gas were left in the tank when he arrived in Paris? (Round to the nearest hundredth.)
