How the conversion works

Liter per 100 kilometers and Kilometer per liter run in opposite directions: one measures distance per unit of fuel, the other fuel per unit of distance. Doubling one halves the other, so the relationship is reciprocal rather than linear.

Going the other way, 1 km/L = 100 L/100km — see kilometer per liter to liter per 100 kilometers.
