Question #23cf8

Answer 1

1 U.S. gallon = 3.79 L

1 L occupies a space of `1 dm^3` (`1 dm^3` measures 10 cm, or approximately 4 in, on each side of the cube.)

It takes 1 000 `dm^3` to make up `1 m^3` (Each side of the cube measures 10 dm.)

Therefore:

1 gal (U.S.) = 3.79 x `10^-3 m^3`

If you are wanting to convert in the opposite direction, `1 m^3` = 264.17 gal (U.S.), according to the UnitConvertLT app.

For imperial (U.K.) gallons, the conversion is

1 gal (U.K.) = 4.546 L.

The same process would be used for converting it to cubic metres.

If you are wanting to convert in the opposite direction, `1 m^3` = 219.97 gal (U.K.), according to the UnitConvertLT app.
