To check the mileage of your car using a calculator, follow these simple steps:
- Fill the Tank: Start with a full tank of fuel and note your car’s current odometer reading. Let’s call this Mileage A.
- Reset the Trip Meter: Set your car’s trip meter to zero.
- Drive Normally: Drive your car as you usually would.
- Refuel and Record: When you next refuel, fill the tank completely and note the amount of fuel you added. Also, record the new odometer reading as Mileage B.
- Calculate the Distance: Subtract Mileage A from Mileage B to find the total distance traveled.
- Determine Fuel Used: Use the amount of fuel you added as the fuel used during this period.
- Calculate Mileage: Divide the total distance traveled by the amount of fuel used to find your car’s mileage.
- If your starting odometer (Mileage A) was 30,000 miles and after refueling it reads 30,500 miles (Mileage B), you have traveled 500 miles.
This way, you can easily calculate your car’s mileage using basic arithmetic.
