The panel urged that fuel use be displayed as fuel consumed - perhaps as volume of fuel used per 100 miles

25 MPG equals 4 gallons consumed over 100 miles (using the same math I learned more than 35 years ago). How many gallons is that in public school education math this month?

Good thing the calculation doesn’t include pi. In a lot of “public” schools pi=3. When I was going to school in the 60’s we learned 3.14159.

It doesn't matter, as long as the gallons feel good about themselves.

I thought the same thing.... these people are, IMO, idiots.

It depends.

Upon what you want to lie about.
