About Cubic Inches

The cubic inch is the volume of a cube one inch on a side. Engine displacement in the US and small volumes in machining use cubic inches.

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 inches to gallons (us)

1 cubic inches is equal to 0.00432900433358 gallon (us):

1 in3 = (0.016387064 L ÷ 3.78541178 L) gal = 0.00432900433358 gal

Each cubic inches is defined as 0.016387064 L and each gallon (us) as 3.78541178 L, so one in3 equals 0.016387064 ÷ 3.78541178 gal = 0.00432900433358 gal.

Let V(in3) be the numeric value of the same volume measured in Cubic Inches (in3), and V(gal) the value in Gallon (US) (gal). Then:

V(gal) = V(in3) × (0.016387064 / 3.78541178)

Equivalently, divide by how many in3 fit into one gal (liters per gal divided by liters per in3):

V(gal) = V(in3) ÷ 230.99999975590504

Or: gallon (us) = cubic inches ÷ 230.99999975590504

Examples

Example #1: Convert 20 in3 to gallon (us)

20 in3 = 20 in3 × (0.016387064/3.78541178) gal = 0.0865800867 gal

20 in3 = 20 in3 ÷ 230.99999975590504 = 0.0865800867 gal

Example #2: Convert 50 in3 to gallon (us)

50 in3 = 50 in3 × (0.016387064/3.78541178) gal = 0.2164502167 gal

50 in3 = 50 in3 ÷ 230.99999975590504 = 0.2164502167 gal

Summary

To convert Cubic Inches to Gallon (US), multiply the value in in3 by the ratio of liters per in3 divided by liters per gal. Equivalently: value_gal = value_in3 × (0.016387064 / 3.78541178). Numerically, 1 in3 equals 0.004329004333578737 gal.
