What's the expense of traveling from Oldham to Birmingham by car?

The trip fueled by petrol comes to £16.7. This calculation is based on a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and the car's consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those interested in carpooling, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, each person's share is £8.35 (£16.7/2). For three passengers, the cost per person reduces to £5.57 (£16.7/3), and with four passengers, it further decreases to £4.18 (£16.7/4).

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 96.21 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 96.21 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 11.7 liters of fuel needed.

Next, we calculate the fuel cost by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. With 11.7 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total cost comes to £16.7.

In summary, the fuel cost for the trip from Oldham to Birmingham amounts to £16.7.

 

Mind of the following to protect your car from over fuel consumption.

  1. Engine Condition: Taking care of your engine with regular tune-ups and oil changes keeps it running smoothly, which means it uses fuel more efficiently.

  2. Aerodynamics: The shape of your car matters more than you think. Sleek designs might look cool, but they can create more wind resistance and burn through petrol faster.

  3. Speed: Slow down, speed racer! Driving at high speeds not only puts you at risk of a ticket but also burns up more petrol. Ease off the pedal a bit and watch those fuel savings add up.

  4. Driving Environment: Whether you're cruising down a straight highway or navigating winding roads, your driving environment can affect how much petrol you use. Plus, extreme weather conditions like heavy rain or snow can also impact fuel consumption.

  5. Tire Pressure: Don't forget to check those tire pressures regularly! Properly inflated tires reduce resistance and help your car roll more smoothly, saving you fuel in the process.
