How the Conversion Works

This calculator uses a two-step conversion process through liters (L) as the base unit, which is the standard unit of volume in the International System of Units (SI).

Conversion Formula:

Step 1: Convert from gal (US) to liters (L)

Value in L = Input value ÷ 0.264172

Step 2: Convert from liters (L) to mL

Result = Value in L × 1,000

Simplified Formula:

Result = Input × 3785.412534258
Where 3785.412534258 is the conversion factor from gal (US) to mL

Example Calculation:

Let's convert 16 gal (US) to mL:

16 gal (US) ÷ 0.264172 = 60.566601 L
60.566601 L × 1,000 = 60,566.601 mL

Result: 16 gal (US) = 60,566.601 mL
