The distance between Oxford and Bolton is about 169.77 miles. So, to cover that distance, your car's gonna need approximately 20.6 liters of petrol. We got that number by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon and then converting it to liters 'cause that's what we use here.

Once we know how much fuel we need, we can calculate the total cost. Multiply the amount of fuel (20.6 liters) by the price per liter (144 pence), and you get 29.6 quid. So, there you have it, the fuel cost for your journey from Oxford to Bolton: 29.6 pounds.
