A new model of car is advertised as having a gas mileage of 5.0 km/L. Convert this rating to miles per gallon (MPG, mile/gallon).
During their lifetime, a person will consume approximately 1.2 × 104 gallons of water. An Olympic-size swimming pool, which has a volume of 2.5 million liters (L), can provide a lifetime of water for how many people? Recall that 1 gallon (gal) = 3.785 × 10-3 m3, and 1 mL = 10-6 m3
1.58 Carry out the following conversions: (a) 0.105 in. to mm, (b) 0.650 qt to mL, (c) 8.75 mm>s to km>hr, (d) 1.955 m3 to yd3 (e) $3.99/lb to dollars per kg, (f) 8.75 lb>ft3 to g>mL.
