The fuel required is determined by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption. For a journey of 97.31 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 97.31 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 11.8 liters of fuel needed.
The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 11.8 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total comes to £16.9.
