Hi, just wanted to see if i have the right calculation for working out my bills. I have LPG gas delivered in liters & the gas from the tank pass's through a gas meter that reads in cubic meters of vapor that works out to be 1ltr=3.85cmv.
We pay 32p per ltr, so is: 1cmv X 3.85 X 32p = £1.23per cmv
Is this correct??

Thanks

Chris :beer:

    No - if you get 3.85cu.m from a litre and a litre costs you 32p then one cu.m would cost 32/3.85 = 8.311p
    Never under estimate the power of stupid people in large numbers

    Thanks for getting back. My apologies & sorry it was the other way around 3.85 litres = 1m3 Vapor at 32p ltr. My fault
