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

Brun

1 gallon is 4.546 litres

chrisp

1 gallon is 4.54 litres

chrisp

you need imperial gallons conversion not US gallons conversion

Matthew

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

chrisp

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.
