Let's delve deeper into the calculations. To determine how much fuel is needed for the trip, we rely on the distance and the car's fuel efficiency. The distance between Southwark and Thurrock is approximately 23.57 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 2.9 liters of petrol. We obtained this value by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon and then converting it to liters.
Once we have the amount of fuel needed, we calculate the total cost. Multiplying the fuel quantity (2.9 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence) yields 4.1 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from Southwark to Thurrock is 4.1 pounds.
