This paper presents the estimation of the areas under the distillation curves of gasoline – methanol mixtures and that of the hydrocarbon base gasoline. Calculation of areas was carried out using the Numerical Trapezoid rule and Calculus Definite Integration method. Linear equations were developed relating the logarithmic values of the areas resulted from azeotrope formations and the alcohol concentrations ,  Also , correlation between  azeotropic area and some volatility terms were discussed}, number={4}, journal={Asian Journal of Applied Sciences}, author={Brakat, Youssef and Ibrahim, V. and Awad, Ezis N. and Zein, S.M.
