Miles to the tank

How do I set the odometer so I can see how many miles is on the car and also see trip miles?

I am sure there are many different ways, but I use Trip A as my "tank" odometer. Each fill up has that trip reset. Trip B has not been reset yet and I have almost 10000 miles on the car. Then there is the car odometer to know the total miles. With this configuration you can also see your MPG over the tank (Trip A) and for all the miles the car has gone (Trip B) because even when you go over 10000 miles, the Trip B keeps on calculating the MPG.

Did I make sense?

I do the same. Trip A and Trip B calculates different average for MPG or L/100km. At first fill up & reset the odometer for Trip A, it shot up to 28L/100km, but realized it didn't have enough mileage to calculate the average. Yeah, I just pulled out from the gas station when I saw it and went..
