The correct answer is
7.36

Mileage Calculation Formula

Car mileage represents the distance a car can travel using a specific amount of fuel. It is commonly expressed in kilometers per liter (km/L).

The formula to calculate mileage is:

$Mileage = \frac{\text{Distance Traveled}}{\text{Fuel Consumed}}$

Step-by-Step Calculation

Given information:

  • Distance Traveled = $18.4 \text{ km}$
  • Fuel Consumed = $2.5 \text{ liters}$

Substitute the values into the mileage formula:

$\text{Mileage} = \frac{18.4 \text{ km}}{2.5 \text{ liters}}$

Calculate the value:

$\text{Mileage} = 7.36 \text{ km/L}$

The question requires the answer rounded to 2 decimal places. The calculated value $7.36$ already has exactly two decimal places.

Thus, the mileage is 7.36 km per liter.
