THE MATH, MADE SIMPLE
How to convert kilometer per liter to liter per 100 kilometers
Fuel economy measures distance per fuel, while consumption measures fuel per distance. Conversions between these two types require division rather than a fixed multiplier.
L/100 km = 100 ÷ km/L30 km/L = 3.33333333333 L/100 km
