If you were to travel from Edinburgh to Stafford, how much would it charge you?

A trip with petrol gasoline will cost you 44.7 pounds. According to the figure presented above, the price of petrol corresponds to 143 pence per litre, and the amount of petrol that the vehicle consumes is equivalent to 37.5 miles per gallon.
Through carpooling, the cost of this trip is 22.35 pounds for each of the two passengers.
When there are three people in the automobile, the cost of this trip is 14.9 pounds (44.7/3) for each individual passenger.
This trip will cost you 11.18 pounds for each of the four people who are travelling in the automobile.


The cost of fuel is equal to (257.74 miles / 37.5 miles per gallon) multiplied by 143 pence a litre, which is 44.7 pounds.

A more in-depth explanation of the result is as follows:

Fuel usage is miles multiplied by 4.54609 divided by the distance travelled by the vehicle.Consumption is 257.74 miles multiplied by 4.54609 divided by 37.5 miles per gallon, which equals 31.2 litres

It takes 31.2 litres of fuel.

The cost of fuel is equal to the amount of fuel required multiplied by the price per litre, which is 31.2 litres multiplied by 143 pence a litre, which is 44.7 pounds.

The cost of fuel from Edinburgh to Stafford is 44.7 pounds.
 

Diesel cost from Edinburgh to Stafford.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 28.2 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 14.1 £ (28.2/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 9.4 £ (28.2/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 7.05 £ (28.2/4) /p.

When comparing diesel fuel and petrol (gasoline) fuel in terms of octane rating, there's a significant distinction:

  1. Petrol:

    • Petrol typically has an octane rating ranging from 87 to 95 in most markets.

    • Octane rating measures the fuel's resistance to premature detonation or knocking in spark-ignition engines.

    • Higher octane ratings are crucial for high-performance petrol engines with higher compression ratios or turbocharging, as they help prevent engine knocking and allow for more efficient combustion.

  2. Diesel Fuel:

    • Diesel fuel doesn't have an octane rating in the same sense as petrol because it's not used in spark-ignition engines.

    • Diesel engines rely on compression ignition rather than spark ignition, meaning the fuel-air mixture ignites spontaneously due to high pressure and temperature.

    • Therefore, diesel fuel is designed to ignite under the high compression conditions found in diesel engines, and its properties are optimized for this type of combustion rather than for octane rating.

In essence, while petrol relies on octane rating to ensure proper combustion in spark-ignition engines, diesel fuel is formulated to ignite under the high-pressure conditions of compression ignition in diesel engines, rendering octane rating irrelevant for diesel fuel.
