Calculation Formula

Gallons Per Mile = Total Gallons / Total Miles

Where:
Total Gallons = The total amount of fuel consumed (in gallons)
Total Miles = The total distance driven (in miles)

Result

Gallons Per Mile: 0.00

Miles Per Gallon (MPG): 0.00

Gallons Per Mile Calculator Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the Gallons Per Mile Calculator and understand its working principles

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the total gallons of fuel your vehicle has consumed in the "Total Gallons of Fuel" field.
  2. Enter the total miles your vehicle has driven in the "Total Miles Driven" field.
  3. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the Gallons Per Mile (GPM) and Miles Per Gallon (MPG).
  4. The calculator will display the GPM and MPG values, giving you a measure of your vehicle's fuel efficiency.

Understanding Gallons Per Mile (GPM)

Gallons Per Mile (GPM) is a measure of fuel efficiency that indicates how many gallons of fuel a vehicle consumes per mile driven. It is the inverse of Miles Per Gallon (MPG). A lower GPM value means better fuel efficiency.

Understanding Miles Per Gallon (MPG)

Miles Per Gallon (MPG) is a standard measure of fuel efficiency for vehicles. It indicates how many miles a vehicle can travel per gallon of fuel. A higher MPG value means better fuel efficiency.

Formula Used

The calculator uses the following formulas:

  • Gallons Per Mile (GPM) = Total Gallons / Total Miles
  • Miles Per Gallon (MPG) = Total Miles / Total Gallons

Practical Applications

This calculator can help you:

  • Track your vehicle's fuel efficiency over time
  • Compare the fuel efficiency of different vehicles
  • Estimate fuel costs based on your driving habits
  • Make informed decisions about vehicle maintenance and fuel consumption
