How gas mileage is calculated

Calculate fuel economy from distance traveled and fuel consumed, showing both miles per US gallon and liters per 100 kilometers where applicable. Distance and fuel must be measured over the same fill-to-fill interval for a meaningful result. Driving 300 miles while using 10 US gallons is 30 mpg. The calculation validates each input and keeps its stated units explicit. No. Lower L/100 km means less fuel used for each 100 kilometers. This is an estimate for the stated assumptions; confirm measurements and any applicable professional or local standards before relying on it.

Gas Mileage Calculator is calculated from the supplied measurement fields using the units shown.
A worked example

Driving 300 miles while using 10 US gallons is 30 mpg.

Assumptions & useful context

The result depends on the values you enter and the method described above. Displayed numbers may be rounded; calculations use the unrounded values. Check that this model matches your situation before relying on it.

Frequently asked questions

Is a higher L/100 km better?

No. Lower L/100 km means less fuel used for each 100 kilometers.

Why use full tanks?

Consistent fill-to-fill measurements reduce errors from fuel gauge estimation.
