How much does a trip from London to Brighton set you back in petrol costs?

The answer: £51. In this calculation, we're considering a petrol price of 144 pence per liter and a car's fuel efficiency rated at 37.5 miles per gallon. Carpooling with two passengers reduces the cost per person to £25.5 (£51 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £17 per passenger (£51 divided by 3), and with a full car of four, it's just £12.75 per passenger (£51 divided by 4).

Now, let's dissect the numbers behind this. The fuel cost is determined by the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For this journey, you'll need approximately 35.4 liters of fuel.
