Convert tonne / cubic meter to tonne / gallon

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

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

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{t o n n e}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = 1016.0469088 (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = 1016.0469088 (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{t o n n e}{g a l l o n}) = \frac{1016.0469088}{4.54609 \times 10^{- 3}} (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = \frac{1016.0469088}{4.54609 \times 10^{- 3}} (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

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

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 1016.0469088 \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = x \times \frac{1016.0469088}{4.54609 \times 10^{- 3}} \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Or

1.0 \cdot 1016.0469088 \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \cdot \frac{1016.0469088}{4.54609 \times 10^{- 3}} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 1016.0469088 \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \times \frac{1016.0469088}{4.54609 \times 10^{- 3}} \times (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Conversion Equation

1016.0469088 = x \times \frac{1016.0469088}{4.54609 \times 10^{- 3}}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

1016.0469088 = x \times \frac{1016.0469088}{4.54609 \times 10^{- 3}}

Simplify

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

Switch sides

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

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{4.54609 \times 10^{- 3}}{1.0})

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

Cancel

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

Simplify

x = 4.54609 \times 10^{- 3}

Solve

x

x = 0.00454609 \approx 4.5461 \times 10^{- 3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{t o n n e}{c u b i c m e t e r}) \approx 4.5461 \times 10^{- 3} (\frac{t o n n e}{g a l l o n})
