You have steamed 925 miles at 13.5 knots, and consumed 181 tons of fuel. If you have 259 tons of usable fuel remaining, how far can you steam at 16 knots?

Correct Answer: Option A — 942 miles

Establish fuel consumption rate per mile from the first leg, then apply the cubic relation for 16 knots with the remaining 259 tons to find the steaming distance of 942 miles.
