Fuel Consumption

Progress: 0%

Fuel Consumption Rate Example

1. Work out how much fuel you use in litres.

2. Divide this by the time of your trip in hours.

Your Passage took 4 hours.
Your Motor used a 20 litre tank of fuel.
What is your fuel consumption rate?

Time = 4 hours
Fuel = 20 litres
Rate = ?

Now put these numbers into the formula.

Rate = Fuel ÷ Time
Rate = 20 ÷ 4
Rate = 5 l/h

Your boat uses 5 litres every hour.
