    Calculating Average Fuel Consumption

    Here is little question on fuel consumption and calculating the average. As with all things mathematical, there is only one correct answer, so what do you think?

    A person travels the following distances and records for each distance the following respective fuel consumption figures.

    300km, 200km, 400km, 100km and 12l/100, 13l/100, 10l/100 and 15l/100.

    What is the average fuel consumption for the trip? Please give your answer correct to one decimal place.

    Ron.

    Well it is obvious isn't it, this person is driving an Isuzu County with the fuel screw wound out a bit and on the last trip has a car trailer with series on it.
