About Cubic Feet

The cubic feet is the volume of a cube one feet on a side (about 28.3168 liters). HVAC, construction, and US freight sometimes use cubic feet.

About Gallon (US)

The US liquid gallon is defined as 231 cubic inches (about 3.78541 liters). US recipes, fuel economy, and retail liquids typically use US gallons.

How to convert cubic feet to gallons (us)

1 cubic feet is equal to 7.48051948842406 gallon (us):

1 ft3 = (28.316846592 L ÷ 3.78541178 L) gal = 7.48051948842406 gal

Each cubic feet is defined as 28.316846592 L and each gallon (us) as 3.78541178 L, so one ft3 equals 28.316846592 ÷ 3.78541178 gal = 7.48051948842406 gal.

Let V(ft3) be the numeric value of the same volume measured in Cubic Feet (ft3), and V(gal) the value in Gallon (US) (gal). Then:

V(gal) = V(ft3) × (28.316846592 / 3.78541178)

Equivalently, divide by how many ft3 fit into one gal (liters per gal divided by liters per ft3):

V(gal) = V(ft3) ÷ 0.1336805554143

Or: gallon (us) = cubic feet ÷ 0.1336805554143

Examples

Example #1: Convert 20 ft3 to gallon (us)

20 ft3 = 20 ft3 × (28.316846592/3.78541178) gal = 149.610389768 gal

20 ft3 = 20 ft3 ÷ 0.1336805554143 = 149.610389768 gal

Example #2: Convert 50 ft3 to gallon (us)

50 ft3 = 50 ft3 × (28.316846592/3.78541178) gal = 374.025974421 gal

50 ft3 = 50 ft3 ÷ 0.1336805554143 = 374.025974421 gal

Summary

To convert Cubic Feet to Gallon (US), multiply the value in ft3 by the ratio of liters per ft3 divided by liters per gal. Equivalently: value_gal = value_ft3 × (28.316846592 / 3.78541178). Numerically, 1 ft3 equals 7.480519488424058 gal.
