If you get 28 miles per gallon.
And you drive 2,120 miles per month.

You need to use 75.71 gallons of gas per month.

With the gas price at $3.00 per gallon
You would use $227.14 in gas per month.

Correct?

Correct?

87.21 gallons of gas.

At $3/gallon, that's
$261.63 a month.


Your math's flawed man.

Correct?

2120/28 * 3.00 = 227.14

The Asian students learn this in pre-school. Don't forget to check your units.
