How It Works
The Gas Usage Calculator uses a straightforward formula to estimate your gas costs. Here’s the breakdown:
- Distance ÷ Fuel Efficiency = Gallons or Liters Used
- Gallons or Liters Used × Gas Price = Total Cost
For example, if you’re driving 300 miles in a car that gets 25 MPG and gas costs $3.50 per gallon, the calculation would be:
- 300 miles ÷ 25 MPG = 12 gallons
- 12 gallons × $3.50 = $42.00
That’s it! No complicated math, just quick and accurate results.
Sample Calculations
| Distance (Miles) | Fuel Efficiency (MPG) | Gas Price ($/Gallon) | Total Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 100 | 20 | 3.00 | $15.00 |
| 200 | 25 | 3.50 | $28.00 |
| 300 | 30 | 4.00 | $40.00 |
| 400 | 35 | 3.75 | $42.86 |
| 500 | 40 | 3.25 | $40.63 |
