What's the expense of traveling from Sunderland to Preston by car?

The trip fueled by petrol comes to £22.3. This calculation is based on a petrol price of 144 pence per liter and the car's consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those interested in carpooling, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, each person's share is £11.15 (£22.3/2). For three passengers, the cost per person reduces to £7.43 (£22.3/3), and with four passengers, it further decreases to £5.58 (£22.3/4).

To delve deeper into the calculation, let's examine how we arrive at the result:

Firstly, we determine the fuel required by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate. For a journey of 127.83 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 127.83 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 15.5 liters of fuel needed.

Next, we calculate the fuel cost by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. With 15.5 liters of fuel at 144 pence per liter, the total cost comes to £22.3.

In summary, the fuel cost for the trip from Sunderland to Preston amounts to £22.3.

For 4 passengers: 3.88 £ (15.5/4) /p.

Diesel engines vs petrol engines:

  • Spark Ignition (Petrol Engines): Ignition is initiated by a spark plug igniting the air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber.
