How much volume is that for the rest of the world? Really unscientific article.

[strictnein]

   0.0001587302 hogsheads
   256 tablespoons
   231 cubic inches

[Ekaros]

Wouldn't 256 in proper tablespoons be 3840 ml?

[eimrine]

why do you consider the cubic inches will be useful to the rest of the world (world who does not use galons)?

[sgerenser]

Yeah, they should have stopped at hogsheads, which is a well understood quantity worldwide.

[cozzyd]

Without cubic furlongs I don't have a good intuition for the amount

[fredoralive]

1 gallon is 0.832674 gallons. Or 1 gallon is 1.20095 gallons.

I get your point but unless you actually need tritium water the number still means nothing lol.

[colechristensen]

Unless you're actually measuring something with any importance, a gallon is about 4 liters. More closely 3.78541... But saying a quart and a liter are about equal is often good enough.

[tedd4u]

As long as you also know a gallon is 4.0… quarts

[colechristensen]

quart = quarter ... gallon

[picofarad]

Wait till we learn what a fifth is!

[tedd4u]

That one I know: it's 750ml

Just think of the largest container of ranch dressing that you’ve ever seen in a grocery store. It’s that much.

[bulbar]

To be honest, if you live outside of the US the answer to that is more likely to be a liter (or less) than a gallon.

[jrflowers]

In that case you can imagine the biggest container of ranch dressing you’ve ever seen in a grocery store, a gallon is a few of those
