How it works
Divide the distance by your car's miles per gallon to get gallons used, then multiply by the price per gallon.
Formula
Cost = (miles ÷ MPG) × price per gallon
Example
350 miles at 28 MPG with gas at $3.45 costs about $43.13.
Assumptions & limitations
- Real fuel economy varies with speed, load, weather and driving style.
