You fill up the tank at the same pump every time and plot an average over many tanks. The fuel that's left in the tank need not be accounted for. You fill up. You divide the number of miles you drove by the number of gallons you put in. Rinse, Repeat.

Drive, fill up, divide miles driven by gallons put into tank.
