1) Divide miles driven by miles per gallon to determine how many gallons will be needed.
2) Multiply by the cost of a gallon of gas to determine the cost for the trip.
Here is an example:
1) Assume you take a 450 mile trip in a vehicle that gets 18 miles per gallon and gas that costs $4.10 per gallon.
2) 450 miles / 18 miles per gallon = 25 gallons of gas.
3) 25 gallons X $4.10 per gallon = $102.50.
4) Total cost of your trip for gas is $102.50.
Divide mileage (750) by miles per gallon (18) to determine how many gallons will be needed and then multiply by the cost of gas (4.12) to determine the cost for the trip: 750 ÷ 18 = 41.67 x 4.12 = $171.68
Divide mileage by miles per gallon to determine how many gallons were used, then multiply by cost per gallon to calculate total cost of gas.: 3168/20 = 158.4 gal x 3.00 = $475.20.
1,617 miles at 10 mpg will cost about $565.95 at $3.50 per gallon.
Divide cost per gallon by the miles per gallon to receive cost per mile. Take the result and multiply the miles to travel by the cost per mile to receive the total cost for the trip. Example: $3.55 cost per gallon/18 mpg= .1922 cents per mile X 1200 miles = $236.66 cost of trip.
Divide mileage (467.47) by miles per gallon (26) to determine how many gallons are required and multiply by price per gallon (2.89) to determine cost of gasoline for the trip: 467.47 / 26 = 17.97515 gallons x 2.89 = $51.96.
At 30 miles per gallon, it would cost $29.25.
If gas costs $3.75 per gallon, your car gets 32 miles per gallon, and you drive 1500 miles, it will cost $175.78. However, your miles per gallon is likely based on highway miles at a specific speed, and it is likely you will not always be at this speed so it may cost more.
10.3 miles @ 20 miles per gallon = 10.3/20 = 0.515 gallons.@ 3.96 a gallon that will cost 2.04 (approx).10.3 miles @ 20 miles per gallon = 10.3/20 = 0.515 gallons.@ 3.96 a gallon that will cost 2.04 (approx).10.3 miles @ 20 miles per gallon = 10.3/20 = 0.515 gallons.@ 3.96 a gallon that will cost 2.04 (approx).10.3 miles @ 20 miles per gallon = 10.3/20 = 0.515 gallons.@ 3.96 a gallon that will cost 2.04 (approx).
