Convert gallon to jigger

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (g a l l o n) = x (j i g g e r)

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) = 4.5424941408 \times 10^{- 3} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 4.5424941408 \times 10^{- 3} (m^{3})

Right side: 1.0 (j i g g e r) = 4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 5} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 5} (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (g a l l o n) = x (j i g g e r)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 4.5424941408 \times 10^{- 3} \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times 4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 5} \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 4.5424941408 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot 4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 5} \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 4.5424941408 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times 4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 5} \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

4.5424941408 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times 4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 5}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

4.5424941408 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times 4.436029434375 \times {10^{- 5}}^{10^{- 2}}

Simplify

4.5424941408 = x \times 4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 2}

Switch sides

x \times 4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 2} = 4.5424941408

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 2}})

x \times 4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 2}} = 4.5424941408 \times \frac{1.0}{4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 2}}

Cancel

x \times 4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 2}} = 4.5424941408 \times \frac{1.0}{4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 2}}

Simplify

x = \frac{4.5424941408}{4.436029434375 \times 10^{- 2}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}} can be rewritten to 10^{2}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{2} \times 4.5424941408}{4.436029434375}

Solve

x

x = 102.4 = 1.024 \times 10^{2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (g a l l o n) = 1.024 \times 10^{2} (j i g g e r)
