1. Elephant carrying bananas to city B ●●●●○ 100 ptsTwo cities $A$ and $B$ are $1000$ km apart. City $A$ has $3000$ bananas and an elephant that can carry at most $1000$ bananas at a time. The elephant eats one banana per km and cannot travel without bananas. Assume the elephant eats continuously, so it can eat fractions of a banana along the way. What is the maximum number of bananas that can be transferred to city $B$? Round to two decimal places.
