Answer from Get out[master]
Gallon is a measure of volume used in countries where a system of weights and measures other than the metric system has historically developed. Typically used for liquids, in rare cases - for solids.
A gallon was originally defined as the volume of 8 pounds of wheat. Later, other varieties were introduced for other products and, accordingly, new varieties of pints appeared. America adopted the British wine gallon, defined in 1707 as 231 cubic inches, as the primary measure of liquid volume. This is where the American liquid pint was developed. The British corn gallon (268.8 cubic inches) was also adopted as a measure of the volume of bulk solids. This is where the American dry pint comes from. In 1824, the British Parliament replaced all versions of the gallon with one imperial gallon, defined as 10 pounds of distilled water at 62 °F (277.42 cubic inches).
A pint is a derivative of a gallon - one eighth of it.
In the US, the standard liquid barrel is 42 US gallons i.e. 1 US barrel = 42 US gallons = 159 liters = 1/2 hogshead. However, when measuring the volume of beer (due to tax restrictions) in the USA, the so-called standard beer barrel is used, which is equal to 31 US gallons (117.3 liters).

Answer from hundredrose[guru]
1 US gallon = 3.78541178 liters
In the UK, 1 gallon = 4.54609 liters.
It is impossible to answer this question unequivocally, since a gallon is a measure of volume that is part of a non-metric measurement system and in different countries has its own value in terms of liters.

Volume is the space occupied by a substance or object. Volume can also refer to the free space inside a container. Volume is a three-dimensional quantity, unlike, for example, length, which is two-dimensional. Therefore, the volume of flat or two-dimensional objects is zero.
The SI unit of volume is the cubic meter. The standard definition of one cubic meter is the volume of a cube with edges one meter long. Derived units such as cubic centimeters are also widely used.
The liter is one of the most commonly used units in the metric system. It is equal to the volume of a cube with edges 10 cm long:
1 liter = 10 cm × 10 cm × 10 cm = 1000 cubic centimeters
This is the same as 0.001 cubic meters. The mass of one liter of water at a temperature of 4°C is approximately equal to one kilogram. Milliliters, equal to one cubic centimeter or 1/1000 of a liter, are also often used. Milliliter is usually denoted as ml.
Gills are units of volume used in the United States to measure alcoholic beverages. One jill is five fluid ounces in the British Imperial system or four in the American system. One American jill is equal to a quarter of a pint or half a cup. Irish pubs serve strong drinks in portions of a quarter jill, or 35.5 milliliters. In Scotland, portions are smaller - one fifth of a jill, or 28.4 milliliters. In England, until recently, portions were even smaller, just one-sixth of a jill or 23.7 milliliters. Now, it’s 25 or 35 milliliters, depending on the rules of the establishment. The owners can decide for themselves which of the two portions to serve.
Dram, or drachma, is a measure of volume, mass, and also a coin. In the past, this measure was used in pharmacy and was equal to one teaspoon. Later, the standard volume of a teaspoon changed, and one spoon became equal to 1 and 1/3 drachms.
Liquids in cooking recipes are usually measured by volume. Bulk and dry products in the metric system, on the contrary, are measured by mass.
The volume of a teaspoon is different in different measurement systems. Initially, one teaspoon was a quarter of a tablespoon, then - one third. It is the latter volume that is now used in the American measurement system. This is approximately 4.93 milliliters. In American dietetics, the size of a teaspoon is 5 milliliters. In the UK it is common to use 5.9 milliliters, but some diet guides and cookbooks use 5 milliliters. The size of a teaspoon used in cooking is usually standardized in each country, but different sizes of spoons are used for food.
The volume of a tablespoon also varies depending on the geographic region. So, for example, in America, one tablespoon is three teaspoons, half an ounce, approximately 14.7 milliliters, or 1/16 of an American cup. Tablespoons in the UK, Canada, Japan, South Africa and New Zealand also contain three teaspoons. So, a metric tablespoon is 15 milliliters. A British tablespoon is 17.7 milliliters, if a teaspoon is 5.9, and 15 if a teaspoon is 5 milliliters. Australian tablespoon - ⅔ ounce, 4 teaspoons, or 20 milliliters.
As a measure of volume, cups are not defined as strictly as spoons. The volume of the cup can vary from 200 to 250 milliliters. A metric cup is 250 milliliters, and an American cup is slightly smaller, approximately 236.6 milliliters. In American dietetics, the volume of a cup is 240 milliliters. In Japan, cups are even smaller - only 200 milliliters.
Gallons and quarts also have different sizes depending on the geographic region where they are used. In the Imperial system of measurement, one gallon is equal to 4.55 liters, and in the American system of measurements - 3.79 liters. Fuel is generally measured in gallons. A quart is equal to a quarter of a gallon and, accordingly, 1.1 liters in the American system, and approximately 1.14 liters in the Imperial system.
Pints are used to measure beer even in countries where the pint is not used to measure other liquids. In the UK, milk and cider are measured in pints. A pint is equal to one-eighth of a gallon. Some other countries in the Commonwealth of Nations and Europe also use pints, but since they depend on the definition of a gallon, and a gallon has a different volume depending on the country, pints are also not the same everywhere. An imperial pint is approximately 568.2 milliliters, and an American pint is 473.2 milliliters.
An imperial ounce is approximately equal to 0.96 US ounces. Thus, an imperial ounce contains approximately 28.4 milliliters, and an American ounce contains approximately 29.6 milliliters. One US ounce is also approximately equal to six teaspoons, two tablespoons, and one eighth cup.
The volume of an object can be calculated using the fluid displacement method. To do this, it is lowered into a liquid of a known volume, a new volume is geometrically calculated or measured, and the difference between these two quantities is the volume of the object being measured. For example, if when you lower an object into a cup with one liter of water, the volume of the liquid increases to two liters, then the volume of the object is one liter. In this way, you can only calculate the volume of objects that do not absorb liquid.
The volume of geometric shapes can be calculated using the following formulas:
Prism: the product of the area of the base of the prism and the height.
Rectangular parallelepiped: product of length, width and height.
Cube: length of an edge to the third power.
Ellipsoid: product of semi-axes and 4/3π.
Pyramid: one third of the product of the area of the base of the pyramid and the height. Post a question in TCTerms and within a few minutes you will receive an answer.
Gallons and liters are units of volume (usually liquids). The gallon is part of the obsolete English system of measures, and the liter is a non-system metric unit (can be used along with SI units). To convert gallons to liters, you need to know the conversion factor. Using this coefficient, you can write down the equation for converting one unit to another. There are also online calculators that quickly convert gallons to liters (and vice versa). Moreover, you can convert gallons to liters using a good graphing calculator.
Determine which variety of gallon you are faced with. Previously, in the English system of measures there were many units of measurement called the gallon: proof gallon, bulk (dry) gallon, liquid gallon, wine gallon, corn gallon. Over time, many varieties of galon were phased out (standardized), but today there are still three varieties of galon. So before converting, find out what type of gal you are dealing with.
Find the conversion factor. The conversion factor for the three varieties of gallon can be found in a textbook or on the Internet.
Write the conversion factor as a fraction. Recall that any fraction whose numerator is equal to the denominator is equal to 1. Such a fraction can be multiplied by any quantity, which will lead to a unit conversion, but the original value of the quantity will not change (because you multiplied the value by 1). To convert gallons to liters, use the following conversion factors, which are written as fractions:
Write down the transformation equation. If you are given a value in gallons that you want to convert to liters, this can be done using a simple equation. Remember that the conversion factor is 1, so the original value (in gallons) will not change.
Convert units of measurement. If the conversion factor is written correctly, simply multiply it by this value. Note that the gallons value is multiplied by a fraction that also has gallons as its denominator. Thus, gallons are reduced, but liters remain.
Find an online calculator. To do this, enter “convert gallons to liters” (without quotes) into a search engine. Most likely, you will find many sites with corresponding online calculators. Open several sites and choose a calculator that suits you with its design and ease of use. Remember that the conversion result will be the same on any online calculator. Since there are several varieties of gallon, it is better to use a calculator in which you can indicate one or another variety.
Enter the gallon value you want to convert to liters. If you use an online calculator, you don't need a conversion factor - just enter the value in gallons and the value in liters will appear on the screen.
Convert to liters of the gallon variety. For example, to convert US gallons first and then UK gallons, you need to reconfigure the calculator. Typically, the online calculator will have a drop-down menu from which you can select a specific variety of gallon. Then enter the value in gallons and the result will appear on the screen.
On your calculator, find the conversion function. Many good graphing calculators have it. Using this function, one unit of measurement can be converted to another. The conversion function is available on the Texas Instruments TI-83, TI-84Plus, and TI-86 calculators.
Enable the conversion feature. First, you need to tell the calculator what units of measurement you want to convert. Further steps depend on the calculator model, but, as a rule, they do not differ much.

The United States of America is a country of cars. That is why talking about gasoline in this country is very important. In the article we will consider such aspects as fuel quality, brands and, of course, find out how much gasoline costs.
As experts often note, gasoline in the United States is of very high quality: if a driver fills up with 91 or 93, he will get the quality he paid for. In some countries (unfortunately, Russia is one of them), fraud is widespread: diluting gasoline, i.e. adding substances that harm the engine. And in this case, the guarantee that the car is actually filled with premium fuel comes to naught, since the manufacturer’s assurance alone is not enough.
Now about the brands represented on the United States market.
Shell is a trademark of the large British-Dutch company Royal Dutch Shell. This brand of gasoline is one of the best-selling gasoline in the United States.
Chevron is a brand of the oldest American energy company, Chevron Corporation. Prices are about a quarter higher than Shell.
Mobil 1 is a brand that is somewhat behind the above in popularity.
Interesting video. Review of an American gas station.
The price of fuel in the United States is indicated in gallons (there are 3.8 liters in one gallon). Somewhere in the statistics below we will find liters, somewhere - gallons, but for convenience we will still indicate most indicators in liters.
The average price of a liter of gasoline worldwide is $1.08. At the same time, the United States is among the countries with the lowest cost of gasoline: the price per liter is $0.72.
It is interesting that the leaders here are the oil and gas powers: Venezuela, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, etc. America, without having massive oil reserves, remains in the lead, although slightly behind Russia. In addition, fuel is several times cheaper than in European countries. For example, in , than in the USA almost 2 times.
The price of gasoline varies greatly by state. In addition, many people note that even in the same city the cost may vary. Thus, the most expensive gasoline is in California: in Los Angeles and San Francisco the cost is about $4 per gallon. For comparison, in Texas it is $1.95. In some cities, the price is completely low: for example, in Houghton (Michigan), the cost per gallon was once only $0.47.
If the gas station is located far from the city, the price increases accordingly. For example, at gas stations near Antelope Canyon the cost rises to $6.
Statistics say that the price varies depending on the month. So, the lowest cost is usually in the summer - $0.68. The highest is in the fall (about 0.75 per liter).
You can also note that they tend not only to grow, but also to fall, which is quite understandable because the market is developing. Residents of Russia, for example, should not expect prices to fall due to the colossal scale of corruption in the oil industry and the dominance of a single company in the market.
The price an American driver pays for gasoline already includes all taxes, so no additional payments will be required.
What makes up the cost of gasoline in the USA in comparison with Russia.
