Build an annual commute distance from a repeated return journey.

Annual commute distance = 2*oneway*days*weeks km
Weekly commute distance = 2*oneway*days km
Average per calendar month = 2*oneway*days*weeks/12 km

Worked example

  • One-way commute (km): 18
  • Commuting days per week: 4
  • Commuting weeks per year: 46
  • Annual commute distance: 6,624 km
  • Weekly commute distance: 144 km
  • Average per calendar month: 552 km
