 My car's average fuel consumption is 0.06 square millimetres, or 6
litres per 100km or about 47mpg (imperial) or about 39mpg (US) - all but
the first and last are easy enough for me to work with, but if I want to
know how far I can go with what remains in the tank then I can just look at
the display on the dashboard which tells me.
