One of the popular routes out of Toronto is towards Tokyo, Japan. An airplane model used by Air Canada for this 10345 km flight is the Boeing 787-9. It has capacity for 298 passengers. When every seat is occupied, the passengers and their luggage weigh approximately 3.41x104 kg. Approximately 6.03x104 kg of fuel has to be consumed during this one-way flight. Assuming the every seat is occupied, how much fuel in kilograms is required per passenger for the entire one-way flight? (do not include units, just the number of kilograms) Answer: Check
