In Mississippi, the poorest state in the nation, it's almost $3.00 per gallon in most cities. It's $2.75 in my small town.

Good question.  I've been wondering the same thing.  Fuel prices in Germany stand at over $7 a gallon (depending on the exchange rate and where you go).  Here in Europe, it's outrageous and always has been!\nKabbob, it is a worldwide issue!  I'm thinking the asker of this question has simply been speaking to people who live in Europe.\nThe fact that fuel prices are "pennies" in other countries is only because the cost of living is so low.

A) Gasoline costs $2.02 for 1 gallon. We want to know how much 12 gallons of gasoline costs.\nx = cost of 12 gallons of gasoline\nx / 12 gallons = $2.02 / 1 gallon --- Cross-multiply...\n(1)(x) = (12)($2.02) --- Multiply...\nx = $24.24\nANSWER: The cost of 12 gallons of gasoline is $24.24 when one gallon of gasoline costs $2.02.\n\nB) Mr. Jones starts with $2,589.36 in his checking account. He writes checks for $689.00, $107.25, and $23.69. We want to know the remaining balance in his account.\nx = amount remaining in Mr. Jones' account\nx + $689.00 + $107.25 + $27.69 = $2,589.36 --- Combine the dollar amounts on the left side...\nx + $823.94 = $2,589.36 --- Subtract $823.94 from each side...\nx = $1,765.42\nANSWER: Mr. Jones has $1,765.42 remaining in his checking account.\n\nC) A 12 oz. can of soda costs (assuming you meant) $0.65. We want to know the cost of 1 ounce of soda.\nx = cost of 1 oz. of soda\nx / 1 oz = $0.65 / 12 oz --- Cross-multiply...\n12x = $0.65 --- Divide both sides by 12...\nx ≈ $0.05\nANSWER: An ounce of soda costs $0.05 when 12 ounces of soda costs $0.65.\n**Note: If you really meant that the soda cost $65.00 instead of 65 cents, then the price for an ounce of soda is $5.42 instead of a nickel.

$1.95 per gallon during the quarter ended September 30, 2005\n\nAirlines, today, average about 40 passenger miles per gallon - a statistic that compares favorably with even the most efficient autos.\n\nSo a rough estimate is fuel costs = miles X (airplane capacity) X $1.95

Yes, but w/good reason.  Gas prices have never been this high w/no relief in sight.  It seems we are limiting our travel b/c we just can't afford to drive in this country.  I know I'm on a gas budget.  Work-home-work-home, maybe a chill spot on the wknd, but that's it.

My gas bill for the house went from $50.00 to $200.00 within 1month!!! I was so upset, but it is because the weather here dose not know what its gonna do from 1 day to the next. I have 2 kids plus my nephew and husband here...so thats a lot. The gas for our cars cost around $2.30 per gallon. Your gas company should have a payment plan for those who cant pay their bills all at once. An income based plan. Check it out.

Damn right. I recieve emails all the time regarding how the Americans actually beleive what comes out fo their TV sets. Finally they are experiencing the cost of car fuel the rest of the world has experinced for years! It's amazing how such a large country, who really genuinely believes it is the 'keeper' of the world, can have such a weakened economy, despite make fuel cheaper for years.\nWhen Bush finally agrees to discuss this issue, it will be too late. Do you wanna be an American Idiot? - Even your own pop stars write lyrics about how stupid you are.\nI realise that the power of these issues is a little out of about 50% of the populations' hands, however, 50% of you (roughly) did vote for Bush, and therefore the BLOOD is on your hands!!

There really isn't much. All gasoline has to meet federal standards. Go for price.

yeah.. good point... but I'm in S.C. and we have one of the lowest gas taxes in the nation and we're still paying near $3 for it... I don't know how that works exactly... oh yeah, greedy oil bastards jack up the price no matter what

They are but prices for gas right now are through the roof. Try at least $3.50 for a gallon of gas. Everything is more expensive. There are a lot of locals who don't like tourist/ military here.

id say keep them money will come...  I'm in Louisville KY- by the end of this summer it will be almost $5 a gallon- its already $2.85+  don't loose it. we still have a untapped source in Alaska.  you know as well as i do that our politicians wont tap it until the rest of the world is dry.  then when they finally do it will be ridiculous. you will be rich.

In the UK it is 3 british pounds per liter, there are close to two liters in a gallon, thus it is about 6 pounds per gallon.  It is $2 per british pound, as such it is around $12 per gallon of gas.  It is this expensive beccause they refuse to buy Gasoline from the Middle East, so, the USA exports all of it's American Oil to the UK at upwards of $250 per barrel (50 gallons), american Oil Tycoons get filthy rich selling their oil to the UK, and because the UK has a stronger economy, they have more mony, more money means things are more expensive.  The economy is better there because they have more gold to back up  each british pound, and less british pounds in circulation (due to the smaller population)

Save them.  I have actually used about 200 to get a gallon of gas before.  Of course, that was ages ago : )

Hey! It's not all about the American People it's all about this green stuff they call money. \n\nThey always have some dumb butt lame excuse for raising the prices. \n\nMy joke is this!! OH MY GOSH!! OH MY GOSH!! President Bush let a fart, it may very well put a hole in the ozone layer lets raise the gas prices, it will take more people off of the streets and reduce air pollution. that's how stupid it's getting to be\n\nOkay..now that I am here...Gunther...get me the soap box lil man LOL!!!!! He's a good cat. LOL\n\nYou know this gas price thing is killing our economy. I just watched the news tonight. People are limiting their driving. They are limiting their entertainment and other things so that they can conserve gas so that they can get to work to earn money so that they can keep STUPID BUTT GASOLINE IN THEIR TANKS!! That is going to drive prices up everywhere because people are not shopping as often, they aren't going to other places as often and in order to keep business rolling grocery prices will jump the cost of entertainment will jump\n\nHELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! ANYONE OUT THERE??? Holy smokes. The almighty buck is killing the American people. We are being smothered by it. We are being smothered by the greed of the government. \n\nAs far as Bush goes. Don't know . Don't know. I just don't. I think he needs to step in and put a stop to this! It's really getting to be out of hand. I believe that many things are going to happen. The crime rate will go up people are going to start siphoning gas tanks\n\nIt's going to be really really pretty out there. \n\nOkay, I am off the soapbox now. Come here Gunther..put it back where you got it from and come get your treat. LOL!! \n\nOkay, I had to add a stupid corny humorous twist to it ;)
