how big is a gallon?
    #5762936 - 06/18/06 01:47 AM (17 years, 7 months ago)

What are the cubic dimensions of one gallon (U.S.)? (If one gallon was made into a perfect cube, what would it's dimensions be?) I bet it's harder to figure out than you think.

1 gallong of water = 3.7854117 L

3785.4 cm cubed. total volume.

take the cube root of that

15.58 cm x 15.58cm x 15.58 cm
1 inch =2.54 cm (exactly)

6.134 In x 6.134 In x 6.134 In

1 US gallon = 3.7854118 liters

Given that measurement, and the fact that metric volumes are based upon even volumes of metric length, it's not hard to figure out from there.

Do a unit analysis.

1 US galllon = 3.7854118 liters (google)= 0.0037854118 m3

cube root of that number = 0.155849128187 m = 15.5849128187 cm

= 6.135792448307 of your inches to a side.

Nah, it's easy. Type into Google this:

1 gallon to cubic inch

and Goolgle will say this:

1 US gallon = 231.000001 cubic inch

And in order to convert the cubic inches into actual dimensions of a cube, you take the cube root of 231.000001 in3.

I'd figure that out, but I've forgotten where I stowed my Ti-83+ for the summer.

US units are so amazing stupid. When do you guys plan to use the metric system?

Use google again: "search" for 231^(1/3)
