Why convert nautical mile per gallon to gallon per 100 miles?

Converting to gallon per 100 miles standardizes fuel consumption for easier comparison with terrestrial vehicle metrics and regulatory requirements.

Is this conversion valid for all types of miles and gallons?

No, this conversion assumes the use of US gallons and accounts for nautical miles, which differ from statute miles.

Can I use this tool for real-time fuel consumption monitoring?

This tool provides average or estimated conversions and is not intended for precise real-time fuel monitoring.
