Formula and example
Fuel required equals total distance divided by scooter mileage. Total cost equals fuel required multiplied by petrol price. Cost per kilometre equals total cost divided by distance, and return trips double a one-way route.
Petrol cost formula
Cost = (Distance ÷ Mileage) × Price
For example, a 25 km one-way ride becomes 50 km as a return journey. At 40 km/L, the scooter requires 1.25 litres.
