Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\frac{3W}{10}[/tex] gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The full capacity of the fuel tank is W gallons.

In the beginning, the tank was [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] part full.

That means initially there was [tex]\frac{3W}{4}[/tex] gallons of fuel.

Now, after reaching the destination the car has consumed 60% of the fuel in the tank.

So, the volume of remaining fuel is (100 - 60) = 40% of initial volume i.e [tex]\frac{3W}{4} \times \frac{40}{100} = \frac{3W}{10}[/tex] gallons. (Answer)
