Convert gallon to cord

Learn how to convert 1 gallon to cord step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (g a l l o n) = x (c o r d)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(c u b i c m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (g a l l o n) = 4.621152048 \times 10^{- 3} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 4.621152048 \times 10^{- 3} (m^{3})

Right side: 1.0 (c o r d) = 3.624556363776 (c u b i c m e t e r) = 3.624556363776 (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (g a l l o n) = x (c o r d)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 4.621152048 \times 10^{- 3} \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times 3.624556363776 \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 4.621152048 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot 3.624556363776 \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 4.621152048 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times 3.624556363776 \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

4.621152048 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times 3.624556363776

Switch sides

x \times 3.624556363776 = 4.621152048 \times 10^{- 3}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{3.624556363776})

x \times 3.624556363776 \times \frac{1.0}{3.624556363776} = 4.621152048 \times 10^{- 3} \times \frac{1.0}{3.624556363776}

Cancel

x \times 3.624556363776 \times \frac{1.0}{3.624556363776} = 4.621152048 \times 10^{- 3} \times \frac{1.0}{3.624556363776}

Simplify

x = \frac{4.621152048 \times 10^{- 3}}{3.624556363776}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0012749566 \approx 1.275 \times 10^{- 3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (g a l l o n) \approx 1.275 \times 10^{- 3} (c o r d)
