Mileage = (Distance Travelled) / (Volume of Fuel Consumed)
Or
Mileage = Distance / Fuel
Where:
- Mileage is usually measured in kilometres per litre (km/l) or miles per gallon (mpg).
- Distance Travelled is the total distance covered by the car in kilometres (km) or miles (mi).
- Volume of Fuel Consumed is the amount of fuel used by the car during the trip in litres (l) or gallons (gal).
To calculate the mileage of a car, you need to divide the distance travelled by the volume of fuel consumed. The resulting value represents the average fuel efficiency or mileage of the car for that particular trip or period.
Note: Depending on the region or standards, other units like litres per 100 kilometres (l/100km) or gallons per mile (mpg) can also be used to express mileage.
