Answer:

  1. 1125 km/(100 L)
  2. 1068.2 km/(100 L)

Step-by-step explanation:

If u represents the desired usage rate, then the proportion is ...

  km/liters = ...

  u/100 = 1350/120

  u = 100(1350/120) = 1125 . . . . km/100 L — first vehicle

and ...

  u/100 = 940/88

  u = 100(940/88) = 1068.2 . . . . km/100 L — second vehicle
