Litres per 100 km to Miles per US gallon
1 litre per 100 km = 235.21 miles per US gallon · 1 mpg (US) = 235.21 L/100 km
1 litre per 100 km = 235.21 miles per US gallon
How it’s calculated
mpg (US) = 235.2145833 ÷ L/100 km
- These units are inversely related (one measures amount per distance, the other distance per amount), so divide 235.2145833 by the value.
- Doubling one halves the other. A value of zero has no finite equivalent.
- 1 L/100 km = 235.2145833 mpg (US) · 1 mpg (US) = 235.2145833 L/100 km

These units are inversely related
One unit measures “per distance” and the other “per volume” or “per time”, so the conversion divides instead of multiplying. Go through km/L. Source: Derived from exact length, volume and time definitions (NIST SP 811 / Handbook 44).
Convert to km/L
km/L = 100 ÷ L/100 km
Convert km/L to mpg (US)
Round the answer
Rounded to 5 significant figures.
Answer: 235.21 mpg (US)
