Converting from Miles per Liter (mi/L) to Kilometers per Gallon (US) (km/gal(US))

What is Miles per Liter (mi/L)

Miles per liter (mi/L) is a unit used to measure fuel consumption. It indicates how many miles a vehicle can travel on one liter of fuel. This measurement helps drivers understand the efficiency of their vehicle and can guide them in choosing more fuel-efficient options. The higher the number of miles per liter, the less fuel the vehicle uses for a given distance, making it more economical.

What is Kilometers per Gallon (US) (km/gal(US))

Kilometers per gallon (km/gal(US)) is another unit of fuel consumption. It measures how many kilometers a vehicle can travel on one US gallon of fuel. This metric is widely used in regions that operate using the metric system, offering a clear gauge of a vehicle's efficiency. Similar to mi/L, a higher value indicates better fuel economy.

Conversion Formulas

To convert between these two units, the following formulas can be used:

1. From Miles per Liter (mi/L) to Kilometers per Gallon (US) (km/gal(US)):

   km/gal(US)=mi/L×6.09203

2. From Kilometers per Gallon (US) (km/gal(US)) to Miles per Liter (mi/L):

   mi/L=km/gal(US)×0.1641489

Examples

1. Converting 1 mi/L to km/gal(US)

   Using the conversion formula:

   km/gal(US)=1mi/L×6.09203=6.09203km/gal(US)

2. Converting 5 mi/L to km/gal(US)

   km/gal(US)=5mi/L×6.09203=30.46015km/gal(US)

3. Converting 7 km/gal(US) to mi/L

   mi/L=7km/gal(US)×0.1641489=1.149042mi/L

4. Converting 8 mi/L to km/gal(US)

   km/gal(US)=8mi/L×6.09203=48.73624km/gal(US)

5. Converting 7 mi/L to km/gal(US)

   km/gal(US)=7mi/L×6.09203=42.64421km/gal(US)
