GO A LONG WAY: meaning and examples

Good morning again.

Today we study another English expression with the word LONG.

Today's expression is: to go a long way (when talking about money, food, etc.)

Meaning
: to last for a long time.

Example 1:
He is able to make his money go a long way, since he spends very prudently.

Example 2:
A very small amount of this paint goes a long way. We were able to paint almost three rooms with only one litre.
