This kind of calculation is trivial with GNU units:
You have: 30 mpg
You want: 1/(mm^2)
* 12.754311
/ 0.078404861
It does reciprocal conversion automatically (12.75 mm^-2 corresponds to 0.0784 mm^2).
Note also that there are approximately 3.785 liters in a gallon, not 4.5461 as stated in the original article.
- ColinWright 11y ago... there are approximately 3.785 liters in a gallon, not 4.5461 as stated in the original article. Not if you're in Europe. Which I am.
- bariumbitmap 11y agoApologies for my US-centric calculations!
- dragonwriter 11y ago> Note also that there are approximately 3.785 liters in a gallon, not 4.5461 as stated in the original article. "gallon" is a unit of volume in several systems of measures, most notably the US Customary system and the Imperial system (these systems are often incorrectly conflated because many of the units are the same, and where the units are different many of the names are still the same.) The size of the gallon is not the same in those systems: 3.785 l/gal(US) 4.5461 l/gal(Imperial)
- bariumbitmap 11y agoThanks, that makes a lot more sense. You have: 30 miles/imperialgallon You want: 1/(mm^2) * 10.620186 / 0.094160312
