Mile per gallon (US) to nautical mile per liter converter (mpg to nmiL)

Conversion Formula

1 mpg = 1.27 nmiL

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Mile per gallon (US) = 235.2 L/100km
   1 Nautical mile per liter = 185.2 L/100km
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 mpg = (235.2 L/100km) / (185.2 L/100km/nmiL) = 1.27 nmiL
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in mpg by 1.27 to get the equivalent in nmiL

Example Conversion

Convert 5 mpg to nmiL:

5 mpg × 1.27 = 6.35 nmiL
