What's the expense of traveling from Ayr to West Dorset by car?

The trip fueled by petrol comes to £74. This calculation is based on a petrol price of 144 pence per liter and the car's consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those interested in carpooling, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, each person's share is £37 (£74/2). For three passengers, the cost per person reduces to £24.67 (£74/3), and with four passengers, it further decreases to £18.5 (£74/4).

To delve deeper into the calculation, let's examine how we arrive at the result:

Firstly, we determine the fuel required by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate. For a journey of 423.92 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 423.92 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 51.4 liters of fuel needed.

Next, we calculate the fuel cost by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. With 51.4 liters of fuel at 144 pence per liter, the total cost comes to £74.

In summary, the fuel cost for the trip from Ayr to West Dorset amounts to £74.

For 4 passengers: 12.83 £ (51.3/4) /p.

Diesel fuel vs petrol fuel in terms of energy density:

  • Diesel Fuel: Diesel fuel is known for its higher energy density compared to petrol. This means that diesel contains more energy per volume than petrol. As a result, diesel engines can achieve better fuel efficiency and typically provide greater mileage per gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol engines.

  • Petrol (Gasoline): Petrol has a lower energy density compared to diesel fuel. This means that petrol contains less energy per volume than diesel. While petrol engines are still efficient, they tend to have slightly lower fuel efficiency and may offer shorter driving ranges compared to diesel engines due to this difference in energy density.
