Answer :
Answer: 41.7 kilometers
Step-by-step explanation:
Orange Fuel Truck:
Let (x) represent the amount of fuel (in kiloliters) the orange fuel truck holds.
According to the given information, the blue fuel truck holds three times more fuel than the orange truck: [ \text{Blue Fuel Truck} = 3x ]
Total Fuel Held by Blue Fuel Truck:
The blue fuel truck holds 41.7 kiloliters of fuel: [ \text{Blue Fuel Truck} = 41.7 ]
Equation: [ 3x = 41.7 ]
Solving for (x): [ x = \frac{41.7}{3} = 13.9 ]
Difference in Fuel Held:
The blue fuel truck holds (3x) kiloliters, which is: [ 3 \cdot 13.9 = 41.7 ]
Therefore, the blue fuel truck holds 41.7 kiloliters more fuel than the orange fuel truck.
