How much is the expense of driving from Sheffield to Carlisle?

The expense of driving from Sheffield to Carlisle, using petrol as the fuel source, amounts to £25.6. This calculation derives from considering the petrol price as 143 pence per liter and the car's fuel efficiency at 37.5 miles per gallon. When carpooling with two passengers, the cost of the trip per passenger is halved to £12.8 (£25.6 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £8.53 per passenger (£25.6 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's reduced further to £6.4 per passenger (£25.6 divided by 4).

To delve into the details of the calculations, the fuel cost computation is reliant on the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For the journey from Sheffield to Carlisle, approximately 17.9 liters of fuel would be required. This amount is determined by dividing the distance of 147.73 miles by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon, and then converting from gallons to liters using the conversion factor of 4.54609 liters per gallon.

Multiplying the fuel needed by the petrol price per liter results in the total fuel cost of £25.6 for the trip. This breakdown illustrates the impact of various factors, such as fuel price and consumption rate, on the overall cost of the journey, providing insights for individuals planning similar trips and requiring budget estimates.
 

Diesel cost from Sheffield to Carlisle.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 16.2 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 8.1 £ (16.2/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 5.4 £ (16.2/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 4.05 £ (16.2/4) /p.

When comparing diesel fuel and petrol (gasoline) fuel in terms of octane rating, there's a significant distinction:

  1. Petrol (Gasoline): Typically has an octane rating between 87 and 95, crucial for preventing engine knocking in spark-ignition engines.

  2. Diesel Fuel: Doesn't have an octane rating as it's not used in spark-ignition engines. Diesel engines rely on compression ignition, so diesel fuel is formulated to ignite under high pressure, making octane rating irrelevant for diesel fuel.
