Gallons and liters

Between gallons and liters is somewhat messy. In the USA, an inch is defined as 2.54 centimeters, and a gallon is 231 cubic inches. A liter is 1000 cubic centimeters.

${\begin{aligned}1{\text{ liter}}&=1000{\text{ cm}}^{3}=1000{\text{ cm}}^{3}\cdot \left({\frac {1{\text{ in}}}{2.54{\text{ cm}}}}\right)^{3}={\frac {1000}{2.54^{3}}}{\text{ in}}^{3}\\[8pt]&={\frac {1000}{2.54^{3}}}{\text{ in}}^{3}\cdot {\frac {1{\text{ gallon}}}{231{\text{ in}}^{3}}}={\frac {1000}{2.54^{3}\cdot 231}}{\text{ gallons}}.\end{aligned}}$

Now multiply that by 60000 and you've got it. Do not round until after you've crunched all the numbers. Rounding should be the last step. I'm getting about 60000 liters = about 15850.3 gallons. A British or "imperial" gallon is different, I think, and maybe the British actually have inches of a different size. Michael Hardy (talk) 02:42, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

Don't speculate Michael! The British inch is defined to be 25.4 millimetres, just as the American inch is 25.4 millimeters. The only difference is the spelling of metre! This is the internationally defined inch, as from July 1st, 1959. Historically, there were minor variations in both versions. The UK (Imperial) gallon is 4,546.09 litres (that's 277.42 cubic inches, or just over 9.6 US pints) Dbfirs 12:45, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
