Im doing a project for drivers ed and i cant figure out the MPG for the Jeep Cherokee that I hypothetically bought. It is a 1990 4D and I need to figure out what the MPG are on it and how much gas would cost for 10,000 miles. The gas price doesn’t matter (you can use the price in your area) or if would like to be specific look up prices in Northern New Jersey.
well you really need to know the MPG, if you said it was around 15 then 10,000\15=666.67 so 666 gallons of gas, 666*3.20=$2133. If you got 20 MPG then 10,000/20=500 500 gallons of gas, 500*3.20=$1600. It really depends on your MPG and the gas prices can affect it too.
if you find out the MPG use this to find out how much it will cost.
(miles)
10,000 divided by MPG to get the GALLONS then times the gallons by the gas price and there you go
10,000\MPG=gallons gallons*gas price= total cost.
