Hi all
I have to admit Iam dumb when it comes to this
To make it easier for the exercise
If I traveled 10 thousand km and was getting 15 lt per 100km how many Lt would I use in total and what is the best formula to use to calculate it
Many thanks
Greg

I tend to be old school on this one... learned MPG and I can get my head around K's per Liter, never been able to do quick calcs or get my head around on Ltrs per 100k ... just isn't natural or intuitive.
If I have x liters in my tank or x liters left in my tank, then multiplying that by KPL gives me a quick distance on the fuel capacity.
I suspect all the Lper100k advocates do the conversions back to KPL anyway which sort of negates the point of it.
Prepared to be bombed ....
