How to convert 39 MPG to L/100km and km/L
Divide a fixed constant by the MPG figure. The constant is the litres in one gallon, divided by the kilometres in one mile, multiplied by 100.
US: 235.215 ÷ 39 = 6.03 L/100 km
UK: 282.481 ÷ 39 = 7.24 L/100 km
For kilometres per litre, multiply instead: US MPG × 0.4251 = km/L, so 39 US MPG = 16.58 km/L. For UK MPG use × 0.3540, so 39 UK MPG = 13.81 km/L.
Based on 1 mile = 1.609344 km, 1 US gallon = 3.785411784 L and 1 imperial gallon = 4.54609 L (NIST definitions).
