Answer 2

Calculation of Initial Fuel Quantity

To determine the initial quantity of fuel in the tank, we can use the information provided. The driver noticed that there was 36.4 liters of fuel remaining in the tank after using 35% of the fuel. We need to find the total amount of fuel that was initially in the tank.

Let's assume the initial quantity of fuel in the tank is represented by 'x' liters.

According to the given information, the driver used 35% of the fuel, which means 65% of the fuel is remaining in the tank. We can set up the following equation:

0.65x = 36.4

To solve for 'x', we can divide both sides of the equation by 0.65:

x = 36.4 / 0.65

Evaluating this expression, we find:

x ≈ 56 liters

Therefore, the initial quantity of fuel in the tank was approximately 56 liters.
