Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / phaniram
Fuel to go = x + (x/4)=5x/4
Fuel to come = x
now,
x+(5x/4) = 4.5
9x/4 = 4.5
9x = 18
x = 2 (Fuel to comeup)
Fuel to go will be:
2+(2/4) = 2 + (0.5) = 2.5

Answer / girija
Let the fuel consumed while coming up be X,
so,
while going the fuel consumed is(X+(X+1/4x)),
(X+(X+1/4x))=4.5
X(1+1+1/4)=4.5
X(9/4)=4.5
X=18/9
X=2.
so, the fuel consumed while coming up is 2gallons.
