For those interested in carpooling, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, each person's share is £24.9 (£49.8/2). For three passengers, the cost per person reduces to £16.6 (£49.8/3), and with four passengers, it further decreases to £12.45 (£49.8/4).

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 287.27 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 287.27 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 34.8 liters of fuel needed.

Next, we calculate the fuel cost by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. With 34.8 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total cost comes to £49.8.

In summary, the fuel cost for the trip from Basildon to Gateshead amounts to £49.8.

 

Some things that affect car fuel consumption are:

  1. Driving Habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as rapid acceleration, speeding, and frequent braking can significantly increase fuel consumption.

  2. Vehicle Maintenance: Proper maintenance, including regular oil changes, tire rotations, and engine tune-ups, ensures optimal fuel efficiency. Neglecting maintenance can lead to decreased fuel efficiency and increased fuel consumption.

  3. Tire Pressure: Improperly inflated tires can increase rolling resistance and fuel consumption. Maintaining proper tire pressure helps optimize fuel efficiency.

  4. Air Conditioning Usage: Running the air conditioning system can increase engine load and fuel consumption, especially in stop-and-go traffic or during city driving. Minimizing AC usage when possible can help reduce fuel consumption.
