How much does it cost to travel from Preston to Halton by car?

The journey, fueled by petrol, comes to £7.2. In this calculation, we've assumed a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and the car's petrol consumption at 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those considering carpooling, with two passengers, the cost per person is £3.6 (£7.2/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £2.4 per person (£7.2/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £1.8 per person (£7.2/4).

To break it down further, here's how we arrive at the result:

The fuel required is determined by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption. For a journey of 41.48 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 41.48 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 5 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 5 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total comes to £7.2.

In conclusion, the fuel cost from Preston to Halton amounts to £7.2.
