The Honda Insight, a hybrid electric vehicle, has an EPA gas mileage rating of 57mi/gal in the city.
How many kilometers can the Insight travel on the amount of gasoline that would fit in a soda pop can? The volume of a soda pop can is 355 .

355mL = 0.355L.
1 gal (US), = 3.8L.
0.355L / 3.8 L/gal = 0.0934 gal x 57mi/gal.
= 5.33 mi x 1.6km/mi = 8.5km.
I’m assuming that the volume of the soda pop can that you indicated is in milliliters since it’s only a can. (Note that the conversion factor used for converting gallons to milliliters is the US liquid unit for gallon)
1mile = 1.609344km
1gal = 3 785.411 784mL
(57mi/gal) x (1.609344km/1mi) x (1gal/3 785.411 784mL) x 355mL
Answer = 8.60 km
