|---|---|
| mpg to km/ltr | km/ltr = mpg X 0.3538461 |
| mpg to litres/100km | ltr/100km = 282.608/mpg |
| km/ltr to mpg | mpg = km/ltr X 2.8260873 |
| km/ltr to ltr/100km | ltr/100km = 100/(km/ltr)) |
| ltr/100km to mpg | mpg = 282.608/(ltr/100km) |
| ltr/100km to km/ltr | km/ltr = 100/(ltr/100km) |
