How much does it cost to drive from Gloucester to Tamworth?

If you're using petrol, it's gonna set you back 13.3 quid. In this calculation, they're saying the petrol price is 143 pence per liter, and the car's gonna guzzle down 37.5 miles for every gallon of that stuff.

Now, if you're carpooling, the cost gets split up between everyone riding. So, if there are two people in the car, it's gonna be 6.65 quid each (£13.3 divided by 2). With three buddies on board, it works out to around 4.43 quid per person (£13.3 divided by 3). And if you've got a full car with four people, it's only 3.33 quid per person (£13.3 divided by 4).

Breaking down the numbers, the fuel cost is calculated based on how far you're going and how much gas your car chugs. For this trip, you're gonna need about 9.3 liters of fuel. They figured that out by dividing the distance of 76.99 miles by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon, and then converting that to liters 'cause, you know, the UK uses liters.

So, you take the fuel needed, which is 9.3 liters, and you multiply it by the price per liter, which is 143 pence. And voilà, you got yourself the total fuel cost for the trip from Gloucester to Tamworth: 13.3 quid.

 

 

There are a bunch of reasons why your car drinks up petrol like nobody's business:

  1. How You Drive: If you're always flooring it, slamming on the brakes, or speeding like a maniac, you're gonna burn through petrol faster than if you take it easy.

  2. Car TLC: Keeping your ride in good shape with regular check-ups and stuff like oil changes and tire rotations can help it run more efficiently and sip less petrol.

  3. Car Type: Different cars have different petrol guzzling habits. So, the make, model, and size of your wheels can affect how much fuel you use.

  4. Where You Drive: Traffic jams, potholes, and hills can all suck up more petrol. So, cruising on a smooth highway is gonna be easier on your petrol tank than crawling through city streets.

  5. Fuel Quality: Cheap petrol might save you a few bucks at the pump, but it could end up costing you more in the long run if it's not good quality stuff.

  6. What You Carry: Loading up your car with a ton of stuff, like sports gear or camping gear, can weigh it down and make it thirstier for petrol.
