Homework Statement
If a car has p litres of petrol in the tank it can travel a kilometres. With v litres of petrol in the tank it can travel b kilometres. Find an expression in terms of v in terms of p, b and a.
2. The attempt at a solution
I just cross-multiplied how I was shown in class, and get v = (p * b) divided by a
So my question is first is this answer correct, and if so, how to demonstrate in perhaps a few steps how I get to it. As I do not understand logically why this is the answer (if it is)
