Instructions for Use

Equivalent Rates lets your child calculate the number kilometres per litre of gas a car consumes in a month, and in a year.

To use Equivalent Rates, input answers in the first five text boxes, and click the "Calculate" button to find the kilometres per hour and the gas expenses per month and year. (You may want to suggest to your child reasonable numbers based on your experience driving a car.) Then enter a higher km/L figure for comparison in the text box. Click the "Calculate" button again to find the amount of money that could be saved if the car got better gas mileage.
