US Dollars per Gallon (DPG):The calculator returns the equivalent price per gallon in U.S. dollars. It uses the gallon to liter conversion and the current exchange rate. The calculator also returns the equivalent in Euros per liter and Pesos per liter.
The Math / Science
Are you used to seeing your gasoline prices in dollars per gallon, but now you're in Canada. You have two things against you. In Canada, they sell their gasoline (petrol) by the liter and in Canadian Dollars. To make the conversion, you have to know how many liters are in a gallon and the current USD/CAD exchange rate. This calculator does all of this for you. It provides the U.S. dollar per gallon equivalent for Canadian dollar per liter.
The formula to convert Canadian Dollars per Liter to U.S. Dollars per Gallon is:
`DPG = CPL * (3.7854 " Liters")/(1.0 " U.S. Gallons") * ($1.0 " USD")/( "$ 1.385 CAD")`
where:
- DPG = Dollars per Gallon
- CPL = Canadian Dollars per Liter
Note: The Canadian Dollar per US Dollar constantly changes. This calculator has updated exchange rates every hour. The Canadian Dollar to US Dollar at the current exchange rate is ($1.385 CAD = $1 USD)
