For those interested in carpooling, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, each person's share is £18.2 (£36.4/2). For three passengers, the cost per person reduces to £12.13 (£36.4/3), and with four passengers, it further decreases to £9.1 (£36.4/4).

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 209.89 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 209.89 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 25.4 liters of fuel needed.

Next, we calculate the fuel cost by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. With 25.4 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total cost comes to £36.4.

In summary, the fuel cost for the trip from Elgin to Greenock amounts to £36.4.

Diesel fuel vs petrol fuel in terms of energy density:

  • Diesel Fuel: Diesel fuel is known for its higher energy density compared to petrol. This means that diesel contains more energy per volume than petrol. As a result, diesel engines can achieve better fuel efficiency and typically provide greater mileage per gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol engines.

  • Petrol (Gasoline): Petrol has a lower energy density compared to diesel fuel. This means that petrol contains less energy per volume than diesel. While petrol engines are still efficient, they tend to have slightly lower fuel efficiency and may offer shorter driving ranges compared to diesel engines due to this difference in energy density.
