For those considering carpooling, with two passengers, the cost per person is £16.3 (£32.6/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £10.87 per person (£32.6/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £8.15 per person (£32.6/4).

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 186.99 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 186.99 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 22.7 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 22.7 liters of fuel at 144 pence per liter, the total comes to £32.6.

Diesel fuel vs petrol fuel in terms of energy density:

  • Diesel Fuel: Diesel fuel is known for its higher energy density compared to petrol. This means that diesel contains more energy per volume than petrol. As a result, diesel engines can achieve better fuel efficiency and typically provide greater mileage per gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol engines.

  • Petrol (Gasoline): Petrol has a lower energy density compared to diesel fuel. This means that petrol contains less energy per volume than diesel. While petrol engines are still efficient, they tend to have slightly lower fuel efficiency and may offer shorter driving ranges compared to diesel engines due to this difference in energy density.
