usinfg a conversion factor of 3.78541178 liter/gal and a conversinn rate of 09633( as per the TCF conversion on 5/10/2011 at 10.43 AM ) a full tank of gas would cost 133.8431695 american dollars , or as an accountant woud say $133.84
Wow that was fast!
I want to disagree... My math utilizing the same conversion rate as the prior determines the cost to be $141.35 us dollars. I was working in New Haven, CT this week and discussed this with the janitor at Yale.
False.... No wait True.... UMMMM..... C?
26 Gallons X the conversion Rate for Liters to Gallons (3.78541178) = 98.42070628. This multiplied by the cost of fuel (1.31) per litter = 128.9311252 dollars and the conversion rate of Canadian Dollars to US Dollars .9633 does in fact = 133.8431695 or $133.84. Very Good Number one.
Now for the bonus question. What would a US Gallon of Gas cost in Ontario.
And Vincent, I am very dismayed to see that you did not get your work handed in in time.
