Answer

* **Set up a proportion:** The vehicle uses 7L of fuel for every 100km traveled. We can set up a proportion to find the fuel consumed for 500km: (7L / 100km) = (x L / 500km)* **Solve for x:** Cross-multiply and solve: 100x = 7 * 500 100x = 3500 x = 3500 / 100 x = 35* **Answer:** The vehicle consumes 35 liters of fuel.**Therefore, the correct answer is B. 35 liters**
