How to convert 2000 miles to gallons:
Please note that above results are approximate, because it’s hard to predict what would be your vehicle’s real consumption value. It will depend on many side factors like:
- Are you driving in city or on highway
- What is a terrain? Is it flat of hilly?
- How many idle stops are you making?
- What is the weather? Are you driving in winter or summer?
- Are you using air conditioner?
- What engine does your car have? Below is a table with some consumption benchmarks. If you’re not sure on your vehicle consumption. Click the button with value in the table to set it into calculator:

The logic in numbers is very simple:
MPG consumption value literally means how many miles you can drive on one gallon. So dividing the distance by number of miles per one gallon will give you amount of gallons. For our case:
2000 / 30 = 66.67 gallons
You can also think about it as proportion: on one gallon, I can drive 15 miles. Then On X gallons I will drive 500 miles. Proportion looks like:
1 gallon - 30 miles
X gallons - 2000 miles
Then,
X = 1 gallon * 2000miles / 30miles
X = 66.67 gallons
