Best Answer

Miles driven per gallon of gasoline or diesel used. That is to say, if you only had one gallon of fuel, this is the distance you could travel. If you have two, then you could travel twice the distance, etc.

To calculate miles per gallon or MPG simply:

While at the gas station:

1. Fill gas tank completely, the same way you always do (whether you top it off or not).

2. divide amount on trip meter by the number of gallons you purchased. i.e. your trip meter says 481 and you purchased 17.34 gallons 481/17.34=27.74MPG

3. reset trip meter

Three simple steps. Though it won't be accurate if you don't reset your trip meter after each fueling.
