If a car has half of the amount of petrol it can have, how much hours can it last?

This doesn’t actually give us enough information to answer the question. Each car has a different fueltank and they can vary in capacity.
Secondly each car burns through their fuel differently, some cars are very gentle with their fuel consumption, while other each eat fuel like it’s free.
Quick google search; Average is 8 hours. So half of that is 4 hours
But nln56 will probably know a lot more about cars, so take his answer
TL;DR Some cars can be gas guzzlers & some are light in fuel consumption, not to mention there’s different tank sizes.
What are gas guzzlers?
When a car burns through gas extremely fast, a semi truck burns a gallon every 4 miles.
Gas gusslers are big cars/trucks
So when you see a quiet, small car that has no power, that’s an economy car (honda civic, chevy sonic, Toyota corolla, ect ect ect)
If you see a relatively large vehicle (american pickup truck, american suv) that is a gas gussler.. gas gusslers include but are not limited to..
Chevrolet silverado, Chevrolet tahoe, Chevrolet suburban, Chevrolet S10, ford f series trucks, ford excursion, nissan armada, Toyota 4runner, Nissan titan, Toyota tundra, ram 1500-5500, Chevrolet blazer.
Also it doesn’t need to be the car, it can be the engine, you could make a honda civic a gas gussler if you put a v12 in it and tuned it to burn the most gas, so in that case any v8 american muscle car is a gas gussler.
Uuuuh what car? A honda civic and a ford excursion have wildly different fuel economy. A civic with one gallon of fuel can go way further then the excursion with one gallon, not because the civic has a inline 4 and the excursion is a fucking v10, but because the sheer size of the two beasts are wildly different, if they where electric, the civic would go further, if they were hydrogen, the civic would still go further, even if you yourself where pedaling to power the drive train, you would use less energy to move the civic then you would to move the excursion.
What I’m trying to say is even if a car has the same engine, same chassis, same transmission and fuel tank, the lighter one will go further, faster then the heavier one, it’s just physics itself.
So if you wanted to know, I would recommend googling the fuel economy of the car that you want, and then do some math and boom bam I guess
It’s a F-150. Tried Google but it doesn’t give me answers in hours and minutes
So how far can a ford f150 go on half a tank o’ gas?
Do you know what year it is?
2024
According to Google, 1 to 1m miles, it’s truly impossible to say, do you drive with you foot to the floor? Do you stop a lot? Do you hypermile the truck? Do you drive it like a nascar warmup?
Also the terrain must be taken into account, even if you floor it up a hill, that’s gonna use more gas then if you floored it down the hill, because uphill gravity is trying to pull the truck down, but downhill the truck will be boosted by gravity.
It’s truly impossible or unfeasible to take into account how you drive, the trucks alignment and how that can effect things, road conditions, weather conditions, other people, emergencies, all that good stuff, it’s impossible to take all of that into consideration when trying to math up how many gallons you’d need.
Forget it
