With the cost of a gallon of gas at $0.849 per gallon (unless it's liters?), this must be homework. First, convert to like units. Since this problem is probably in U.S. customary units, convert metric (km) to U.S. (miles):
1352 km = 840 miles
If you go 400 miles on 40 gallons, divide for mpg: 400 miles / 40 gallons = 10 mpg
So: 840 miles / 10 mpg = ? x the cost per gallon
