‭●‬ ‭Calculate the amount of fuel needed to travel to Jaipur (up to the hotel) by flight‬
‭and by car.‬
‭●‬ T ‭ he carbon footprint left by the family (up to the hotel) by each of the modes of‬
‭transport.‬
‭●‬ ‭The total cost involved in travelling by flight and that by car‬
‭●‬ ‭A clear suggestion as to the most cost-effective mode of transport, stating the‬
