Too hard.

I just google every conversion.
For example

8.2L/100km = ? mpg in google and it'll give you the answer

5m = ? ft
etc etc.

There's not a mathematical function or equation that hasn't worked for me yet.

I've mentioned this to a few people. I have a rough new version of the garage that accepts KM and L that you guys can use for your gaslogs. It won't work for much else though until I finish it.

This should help you guys out of the US or with non-US vehicles.

Why cant metric be km/l? That l/100km just seems silly. Well, I guess I (we) could backwards? how do other non-metric countries do it? Are Americans backwards with the <distance>/<liquid measuring unit>
