If I ask friends to contribute a little money when I drive them on long trips, how do I figure out the cost?

Question

I don't know if this matters but the average cost of gas where I live is about $4.10 and I estimated my car does about 25 mpg

Answer 1

Just fill-up on your own money before the trip, and whatever you spend filling it back up after the trip, split it evenly amongst yourselves.

Answer 2

figure the total cost...the number of people and divide the number....40$ 4 people...40/4....10 dollars each....pay up suckas...

Answer 3

Answer 4

Divide the round trip mileage by 25 mpg. Multiply that number by the cost of $4.10 per gallon

Example: 200 miles divided by 25 = 8 gallons of gas x $4.10= $32.80 divided by 4 = $8.20 per person.

Answer 5

it depends how much you spend and with how many people you take to the trip
