How much is the expense of driving from Glenrothes to Newcastle upon Tyne?

The expense of driving from Glenrothes to Newcastle upon Tyne, using petrol as the fuel source, amounts to £27.7. This calculation derives from considering the petrol price as 144 pence per liter and the car's fuel efficiency at 37.5 miles per gallon. When carpooling with two passengers, the cost of the trip per passenger is halved to £13.85 (£27.7 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £9.23 per passenger (£27.7 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's reduced further to £6.93 per passenger (£27.7 divided by 4).

To delve into the details of the calculations, the fuel cost computation is reliant on the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For the journey from Glenrothes to Newcastle upon Tyne, approximately 19.3 liters of fuel would be required. This amount is determined by dividing the distance of 158.97 miles by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon, and then converting from gallons to liters using the conversion factor of 4.54609 liters per gallon.
