Convert Cubic centimetres to Imperial gallons

1 cubic centimetre is 0.00022 gal (UK). One cubic centimetre is exactly 0.000219969248299 imperial gallons.

One cubic centimetre is 2.1997 × 10^-4 imperial gallons. To convert cubic centimetres to imperial gallons, multiply by 2.1997 × 10^-4; to go the other way, divide by 2.1997 × 10^-4 or multiply by 4546.09. The relation is exact but the figure is not: it is a rounding of a number that does not terminate, and it follows from NIST Handbook 130. A thousandth of a litre, which makes it exactly a millilitre — the same volume under two names.

How do you convert cubic centimetres to imperial gallons? The converter and the working

  1. 1.Take the measurement in cubic centimetres.
  2. 2.Multiply by 2.1997 × 10^-4 — that is how many imperial gallons fit in one cubic centimetre.
  3. 3.To go back the other way, divide by 2.1997 × 10^-4, or multiply by 4546.09.

Worked example: 25 cubic centimetres to imperial gallons

Formula
cm³ × 2.1997 × 10^-4 = gal (UK)
Arithmetic
25 × 2.1997 × 10^-4 = 0.01 gal (UK)
Answer
25 cm³ = 0.01 gal (UK)

The factor is rounded for display; the figure above is computed from the full value.

What is a cubic centimetre?

A thousandth of a litre, which makes it exactly a millilitre — the same volume under two names. Engine displacement uses cc and medicine uses ml for the identical quantity.

What is an imperial gallon?

Exactly 4.54609 liters since 1985, and the reason UK and US fuel economy figures cannot be compared: it is 20% larger than the US gallon, so 40 mpg in Britain is about 33 mpg in America on the same car.

How many imperial gallons are in a cubic centimetre?

One cubic centimetre is 2.1997 × 10^-4 imperial gallons. Going the other way, one imperial gallon is 4546.09 cubic centimetres. Both figures come from the same defined relation rather than from a measurement, which is why they are the same today as they were in 1959.

Every volume unit here

The whole group — 20 units with their symbols and the size of each one in liters — is on the conversion index, along with every pair it makes. The table above already gives each of them relative to a cubic centimetre.
