A mechanic buys 2 barrels of oil. If there are 63 gallons in every barrel and approximately 3.785 liters for every gallon, approximately how many liters of oil did the mechanic buy?
Lets start by figuring the liters per gallon amount. 63 times 3.785 equals 238.455. Since we have 2 barrels, we need to multiply this by 2 in order to get a grand total of 476.91 liters of oil.
