Around here if regular sells for say $1.659 you would just add 10 ¢ per gallon to get the higher grade price.
1.659 regular 87
1.759 plus 89
1.859 prem 93 Now check my math here. If their is 3.79 liters in a gallon that would translate to only a .026 ¢ per liter differance between grades. Lets try one other coversion. Your prices quoted would be in gallons...
3.028 regular
3.217 plus
3.483 prem And we complain about the price of gas here in the US. One other note. While I will not tell you what the store pays for gas I will say that the store in my area today paid the following.
If regular were free or 0.00
then 89 plus would be 0.0315
and 93 prem would be 0.0915
Remember they charge 10 ¢ extra for plus and 20 ¢ extra for prem. per gallon
And that would translate to in liters
87 regular 0.00
89 plus 0.0083
93 prem 0.0241 Please check my math because I am not the best liter to gallon converter.
