Convert Cubic Feet to Gallon (US)
Cubic Feet
A cubic foot (ft³) is a unit of volume in the imperial system and the U.S. customary system. It is defined as the volume of a cube with sides that are each 1 foot long. One cubic foot is equivalent to 1,728 cubic inches or approximately 0.0283 cubic meters (m³). It is commonly used to measure the volume of spaces, rooms, and materials such as building materials, air, or liquids.
The cubic foot is derived from the foot, a unit of length that has been used for centuries and was originally based on the average length of a human foot. The foot became standardized in the 14th century in England, and the cubic foot, as a unit of volume, was introduced as a way to measure the volume of larger objects or spaces. It is widely used in construction, real estate, and other industries where volume measurement is needed. Despite the global shift to the metric system, the cubic foot remains a standard unit of volume in countries that use the imperial or U.S. customary systems.
Gallon (US)
The US gallon is a unit of volume in the U.S. customary system. It is defined as 231 cubic inches, which is approximately 3.785 liters or 4 quarts. The US gallon is primarily used in the United States to measure liquids such as fuel, beverages, and other fluids.
The US gallon originated from the British gallon, which itself was derived from earlier definitions of the gallon in medieval England. The British gallon was based on the volume of eight pounds of water, but the US gallon, which was standardized in 1824, was redefined to be 231 cubic inches in volume. This definition was adopted to better align with the measurements used in the U.S. liquid measurement system. The US gallon is slightly smaller than the imperial gallon (used in the UK and other Commonwealth countries), which is defined as 4.54609 liters. Despite the global shift to the metric system, the US gallon remains widely used in the United States for measuring liquid volumes.
