The fuel required is determined by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption. For a journey of 63.71 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 63.71 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 7.7 liters of fuel needed.
The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 7.7 liters of fuel at 144 pence per liter, the total comes to £11.1.

Fuel consumption in automobiles can be affected by the following factors:
In severe traffic, drivers frequently have to stop and start their vehicles multiple times, and they also have to wait in traffic lines for extended periods of time. When compared to driving on open highways with the flow of traffic, this frequent acceleration and deceleration might contribute to an increase in the amount of fuel that is consumed.
It is possible to increase fuel consumption by carrying additional weight in the vehicle, such as large goods or objects that are not necessary. This is because the engine is put under additional pressure while the vehicle is carrying excess weight. Improving fuel economy can be accomplished by removing unneeded weight.
Elevation Changes: Driving on roads that have steep inclines or drops can have an effect on fuel usage, particularly for vehicles that have engines that are not as strong. During a descent downhill, it may be necessary to use greater braking and petrololine in order to maintain control, but climbing uphill takes more power from the engine, which in turn consumes more fuel.
Weather Conditions: Unfavourable weather conditions, such as rain, snow, or strong winds, can have an impact on the amount of petrololine that is consumed. It may be necessary for drivers to modify their speed and driving behaviour in response to these conditions, which will have an effect on fuel efficiency.
