Convert gram / gallon to pound / cubic meter

Learn how to convert 1 gram / gallon to pound / cubic meter step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{g r a m}{g a l l o n}) = x (\frac{p o u n d}{c u b i c m e t e r})

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

(\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Left side: 1.0 (\frac{g r a m}{g a l l o n}) = \frac{1.0}{3.785411784} (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = \frac{1.0}{3.785411784} (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{p o u n d}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = 0.45359237 (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = 0.45359237 (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (\frac{g r a m}{g a l l o n}) = x (\frac{p o u n d}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{1.0}{3.785411784} \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = x \times 0.45359237 \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{1.0}{3.785411784} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \cdot 0.45359237 \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{1.0}{3.785411784} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \times 0.45359237 \times (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Conversion Equation

\frac{1.0}{3.785411784} = x \times 0.45359237

Switch sides

x \times 0.45359237 = \frac{1.0}{3.785411784}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{0.45359237})

x \times 0.45359237 \times \frac{1.0}{0.45359237} = \frac{1.0}{3.785411784} \times \frac{1.0}{0.45359237}

Cancel

x \times 0.45359237 \times \frac{1.0}{0.45359237} = \frac{1.0 \times 1.0}{3.785411784 \times 0.45359237}

Simplify

x = \frac{1.0}{3.785411784 \times 0.45359237}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.5823996827 \approx 5.824 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{g r a m}{g a l l o n}) \approx 5.824 \times 10^{- 1} (\frac{p o u n d}{c u b i c m e t e r})
