Miles per Gallon

How do I find out how many miles per gallon my car gets?

The steps for a car.
  1. Fill your car to a full tank of gas
  2. Write down how many miles your car has driven. (From the odometer)
  3. Drive until it is time to fill up again
  4. Write, for a second time how many miles your car has driven. (From the odometer)
  5. Fill your car up with gas.
  6. Write down how many gallons of gas was used.
  7. Subtract the start miles from the end miles.
  8. Divide that number from the gallons of gas used
