How fuel cost is calculated
Fuel needed = distance ÷ mpg (or distance × l/100 km ÷ 100). Multiplied by the price, that's the cost. 250 miles at 30 mpg and $3.50/gal is 8.3 gallons or $29.17.
Real-world consumption depends on driving style, load, A/C and route. Splitting per person is handy for carpools – wear and insurance aren't included.

Does it work for electric cars?
