Your method for calculating sales tax on your gas receipts is just fine. As long as you are consistent and use the method that you are describing you should be fine at an audit.
The IRS uses a flat algorithm to calculate the amount of sales tax you can deduct based on your income and where you live. You can find the calculator here.
