Answer:

$8.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Price in England = 1.4 pounds per Litre

Current exchange rate : 1 pound = 1.65 dollars

1 Litre = 0.26 gallons

If 1 Litre = 0.26 gallons

1 gallon = (1 / 0.26) litres = 3.8461538 litres

Therefore, cost per gallon in England = (1.4 × 3.8461538)

= 5.3846153 pounds

Then ;

If 1 pound = 1.56 dollars

Then cost per gallon in dollars equals

5.3846153 * 1.56 = 8.399999868 dollars

$8.40
