What does nautical mile/gallon (US) measure?

It measures fuel economy as the distance in nautical miles traveled per one US liquid gallon of fuel, commonly used in maritime and aviation contexts.

Why convert to gallon (UK)/100 mi?

Converting to gallon (UK)/100 mi expresses fuel consumption as UK gallons consumed over 100 statute miles, facilitating comparison with conventional vehicle fuel metrics.

Are nautical miles the same as statute miles?

No, nautical miles differ from statute miles in length, which is why conversions involving these units require careful handling to maintain accuracy.
