The mileage is a very important concept if you want to cover a long distance on the highway. After all, it is interesting to know how much is still left to go to this or that city, or how many kilometers in general are left to the destination. By calculating the mileage, you can, moreover, perfectly entertain yourself on the way.
Instructions
Step 1
Of course, the easiest way to calculate mileage is to use a computer. Want to know how long your upcoming journey will take in kilometers? Go online. Today there are a huge number of sites here that include a kilometer calculator. Just enter two points: from where and where, and the system will automatically calculate your path for you to the nearest meter.
Step 2
You can calculate the mileage yourself. And you can do it in several ways. The first is to use special itinerary guidebooks. In them, as a rule, the route is divided into sectors, where the number of kilometers from one object to another is indicated. Just add them together and get the distance you need to travel.
Step 3
Calculate your mileage using the car's on-board computer. To do this, reset the data before starting the trip. The second mark will appear at the moment when you arrive at your destination. This will be the detailed mileage of your journey.
Step 4
You can count the running kilometers along the way and in this way. Just keep an eye on the columns that mark each kilometer you have traveled. Or look at the periodically appearing information boards, which indicate the remaining distance to a particular object. Again, by mathematical addition, combine the obtained data and get the desired result.
Step 5
There is one more way. But it is very approximate - to count kilometers based on the amount of fuel used. You just need to calculate how much gasoline you burned. But calculations can only be made if you know the volume of your tank and the detailed fuel consumption per 100 km. If you know this, then calculate the mileage as follows: multiply the amount of fuel burned by the number of liters used per 100 km and divide by 100. This is how you get the mileage. However, this calculation will be very approximate.
