1) how much did you spend..... 2) how far did you drive.... 3)divide one by the other.

Is this a trick question?

Divide money spent/gallon by mpg

$3.50per gallon/35mpg=$ .10/mile

But that is cents per mile just for the gas, not for everything else, I spend around 8 cents per mile on gas, but my total cost per mile is more like 22 cents, but it's still done the same, total spent divided by total miles, if you don't know what that is, then start keeping track.
