Help...

How do I calculate the folowing; or does somebody have the answer to the below please?

7.7km/L @60km/h

How many miles per gallon would I get from the above?

Thanks

 

bout 22

 

Yep about 22mpg

7.7 x (5/8) x 4.54 = about 22mpg

 

Is the below calculation right? I reffered to some conversion sites ie http://www.rockymountainmoggers.com/convert.html while processing the following...

Do we have any keen mathamaticians in the forum?

7.7km/L @60km/h (average of 37 miles per hour)

1 litre = 7.7 kilometres

1 gallon = 3.7854 litres

7.7 km = 4.785 miles

3.7854 litres (1 gallon) x 4.785 = 18.11 miles per gallon

 

1 gallon is 4.546 litres

 

1 gallon is 4.54 litres

 

you need imperial gallons conversion not US gallons conversion

 

Type it into Google like this "7.7 kilometres per litre in miles per gallon" and it'll give you the answer (18.11 miles per gallon), or for UK gallons change it to
"7.7 kilometres per litre in miles per uk gallon" and you get 21.75

 

an imperial gallon is 1.2 times bigger than a US gallon

Aha... So with this in mind the answer should be = 21.7239 miles per gallon

Which rounded up is as mentioned 22 miles per gallon.

Thanks for all your help everyone, it's been an educational evening.
