Convert gallon to register ton

Learn how to convert 1 gallon to register ton step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

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

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) = 4.54609 \times 10^{- 3} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 4.54609 \times 10^{- 3} (m^{3})

Right side: 1.0 (r e g i s t e r t o n) = 2.8316846592 (c u b i c m e t e r) = 2.8316846592 (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

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

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 4.54609 \times 10^{- 3} \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times 2.8316846592 \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 4.54609 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot 2.8316846592 \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 4.54609 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times 2.8316846592 \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

4.54609 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times 2.8316846592

Switch sides

x \times 2.8316846592 = 4.54609 \times 10^{- 3}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{2.8316846592})

x \times 2.8316846592 \times \frac{1.0}{2.8316846592} = 4.54609 \times 10^{- 3} \times \frac{1.0}{2.8316846592}

Cancel

x \times 2.8316846592 \times \frac{1.0}{2.8316846592} = 4.54609 \times 10^{- 3} \times \frac{1.0}{2.8316846592}

Simplify

x = \frac{4.54609 \times 10^{- 3}}{2.8316846592}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0016054365 \approx 1.6054 \times 10^{- 3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (g a l l o n) \approx 1.6054 \times 10^{- 3} (r e g i s t e r t o n)
