Welcome to FuelEfficiencyCalculator — a simple Java program designed to compute the fuel cost per 100 miles and the maximum distance a vehicle can travel on a full tank of gas.
Features
· Accepts user input for:
- Number of gallons in the fuel tank
- Vehicle fuel efficiency (MPG)
- Price of gas per gallon
· Calculates:
- Cost to drive 100 miles
- Maximum distance the vehicle can travel on a full tank
· Displays monetary values formatted to exactly two decimal places
· Outputs travel distance as a whole number
· Beginner‑friendly Java code with clear variable names and console prompts
Installation
**Prerequisites**
· Java Development Kit (JDK 17 or later recommended)
· A Java‑compatible IDE or terminal environment
**Clone the Repository**
git clone https://github.com/3N16MV/FuelEfficiencyCalculator
Usage
You will be prompted to enter:
- Gallons of gas the tank can hold
- Fuel efficiency (MPG)
- Price per gallon of gas to the nearest hundredth
The program will then display:
- Cost of gas per 100 miles
- Distance the car can travel with a full tank of gas
Example
This program calculates the fuel efficiency of a vehicle in miles per gallon (MPG) and how far your car can travel
with a full tank of gas.
Please enter the number of gallons of gas your car can hold rounded to the nearest whole number: 20
Please enter the fuel efficiency of your car in miles per gallon (MPG) rounded to the nearest whole number: 23
Please enter the price of gas per gallon in dollars to the nearest hundredth cent (two decimal places): 5.49
The cost to drive 100 miles is: $23.87
The distance your car can travel with a full tank of gas is: 460 miles.
