To estimate the range of your vehicle, multiplying the tank capacity by the miles per gallon gives a direct indication of how far the vehicle can travel on a full tank of fuel. This calculation involves two key factors: the total amount of fuel the vehicle can carry (tank capacity) and the vehicle's fuel efficiency (miles per gallon). By understanding both of these measurements, you can effectively determine a theoretical maximum distance or range that can be covered before refueling is necessary. This method provides a clear and quantifiable way to assess driving distance based solely on fuel availability and consumption.

Other methods, like tracking average speed, measuring the distance of the last trip, or calculating the number of stops planned, do not provide a precise estimation of range based on fuel capacity and efficiency, which are the foundational elements for calculating how far the vehicle can go on a full tank.
