According to AAA, the national average for a tank of gas reached $4.04 per gallon on Sunday. .
With the price of gas taking a much bigger chunk out of drivers' budgets, there is an easy way to figure our how many hours of work it takes to fill your tank.
The Regional Transportation Commission (RTC) of Southern Nevada has added a "Gas-Value Calculator" to their web site.
You just punch in your annual or hourly salary, the price for a gallon of gas, and the size of your tank. Press "calculate," and you'll discover how many hours you'll have to work to fill your tank.
If you'd like to check your own figures, you can do so online at the RTC website.
