Good old google.
"320 miles per 42 litres in miles per gallon" = 28.8412328 miles per gallon
"320 miles per 42 litres in litres per 100 km" = 8.1554969 litres per (100 km)
Let the computers do the leg work ;-)

Beer drinkers: "5 uk pints per day in uk gallons per year" One for the ladies: "6 inches per day in yards per year"
Good stuff!

Think of a car that doesn't carry any fuel on board, but scoops it up from a trough laid along the road instead. If you took the fuel consumption of the car as an area, it would give you the smallest cross-sectional area of trough that you could get away with.
I'm sad enough to think that's really clever you know ;o)

Shame it's in US gallons, suprising considering it's google.co.uk.
It defaults to US gallons, can still get imperial gallons. I thought
28MPG looked a bit poor!320 miles per 42 litres in miles per imperial gallon (320 miles) per (42 litres) = 34.6368905 miles per Imperial gallon
The message from snipped-for-privacy@TALK21.COM contains these words:
You only have to put "uk gallons".
Oops. Thanks for that.
