Litres to Gallons Conversion

Your tank's Capacity (Litres):
 
Your tank holds aproximately: Gallons

Imperial/Standard Calculations


How many gallons does your tank really hold? (Standard/Imperial)

Your tanks Length (inches):
Your tanks Width (inches):

S.I./Metric Calculations


If your tank is square (S.I./Metric measurements)


Your tank's Length (centimetres):
Your tank's Width (centimetres):
Your tank's Depth (centimetres):
 
Your tank holds aproximately: litres
The equation is simple: Length X width X height = the tank volume, in Cubic Centimetres. One Cubic centimetre = 1 mililitre, and 1000 mililitres is a litre, so 1000 CC's is one litre.

If Your Tank Is Round Or Octagonal (S.I./Metric Measurements)

Your tank's Diameter (centimetres):
Your tank's Depth (centimetres):
 
Your tank holds aproximately: Litres

Your tank weighs... (Metric/SI)

Your tank weighs aproximately: Kilogrammes
(i.e.)

1 litre = 1 Kilogram
