To provide further elucidation on the calculation process, let us dissect how the final figure is derived:
Initially, the requisite fuel quantity is determined by dividing the distance traveled by the car's fuel consumption rate. For a journey spanning 172 miles, this computation entails multiplying 172 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and subsequently dividing by the car's fuel efficiency of 37.5 mpg, resulting in a requirement of 20.9 liters of fuel.
Subsequently, the fuel expenditure is computed by multiplying the amount of fuel required by the price per liter. Given a consumption of 20.9 liters of fuel at a rate of 143 pence per liter, the cumulative cost equals £29.8.
In summation, the total fuel expenditure for the trip from Chesterfield to Chelmsford stands at £29.8.

Diesel fuel and gasoline (petrol) fuel have differences:
-
Emissions: Diesel fuel combustion typically produces higher levels of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter compared to petrol combustion. However, advancements in diesel engine technology, such as particulate filters and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems, have significantly reduced emissions from modern diesel vehicles.
-
Availability and Pricing: The availability and pricing of diesel fuel and petrol can vary by region and depend on factors such as government subsidies, taxes, and infrastructure. In some regions, diesel fuel may be more readily available or cheaper than petrol, influencing consumer choices and vehicle preferences.
