What is unitary method?

The unitary approach is a methodology for solving problems that involves first determining the value of a single unit and then multiplying that value by the required value. The term unitary refers to a single or unique entity. As a result, the goal of this approach is to determine values in reference to a single unit. For example, if a car travels 44 kilometers on two litres of gasoline, we may use the unitary technique to calculate how far it will go on one litre of gasoline.

Here,

For 2 hour flight, 88 L of fuel is needed.

For 1 hour, There will be 44 L fuel.

Extra fuel needed,

=44-32

=12 L

The minimum amount of extra fuel that Seth must carry in his plane at all times will be 12 L/hour.
