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 403.67 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 403.67 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 48.9 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 48.9 liters of fuel at 144 pence per liter, the total comes to £70.5.
