How Much Gas do I Need?

In Africa, during her safari, Ms. Hoffman had to be careful that she has enough gas to drive to the next city. In South Africa, Namibia, and Botswana they measure gas in liters and distance in kilometers (km).

Her truck could go 9 km for ever liter of gas it used. 

One day, Ms. Hoffman had to drive from Sesriem, Namibia to the Quiver Tree National Forest near Keetmanshoop, Namibia.
