How to convert gallons (us) to pints (us)
1 gallon (us) is equal to 7.99999999154649 pint (us):
1 gal = (3.78541178 L ÷ 0.473176473 L) pt = 7.99999999154649 pt
Each gallon (us) is defined as 3.78541178 L and each pint (us) as 0.473176473 L, so one gal equals 3.78541178 ÷ 0.473176473 pt = 7.99999999154649 pt.
Let V(gal) be the numeric value of the same volume measured in Gallon (US) (gal), and V(pt) the value in Pint (US) (pt). Then:
V(pt) = V(gal) × (3.78541178 / 0.473176473)
Equivalently, divide by how many gal fit into one pt (liters per pt divided by liters per gal):
V(pt) = V(gal) ÷ 0.12500000013209
Or: pint (us) = gallon (us) ÷ 0.12500000013209
Examples
Example #1: Convert 20 gal to pint (us)
20 gal = 20 gal × (3.78541178/0.473176473) pt = 159.999999831 pt
20 gal = 20 gal ÷ 0.12500000013209 = 159.999999831 pt
Example #2: Convert 50 gal to pint (us)
50 gal = 50 gal × (3.78541178/0.473176473) pt = 399.999999577 pt
50 gal = 50 gal ÷ 0.12500000013209 = 399.999999577 pt
Summary
To convert Gallon (US) to Pint (US), multiply the value in gal by the ratio of liters per gal divided by liters per pt. Equivalently: value_pt = value_gal × (3.78541178 / 0.473176473). Numerically, 1 gal equals 7.9999999915464945 pt.
