Best way to drive hills

Heres the situation, a road with hill after hill. Whats the best way to traverse it with the least amount of fuel?

I can only imagine several ways:
EOC from the top of the 1st hill then go slow in a high gear up the next.

Speed up down the 1st hill and then coast up the next hill.

Speed up half way down the 1st hill then EOC half way down and half way up the 2nd hill then low speed up the rest of the 2nd hill.
