How to Convert US Barrels Oil to US Gallons
Example: How many US gallons are equivalent to 86.87 US barrels oil?
As;
1 US barrels oil = 42 US gallons
86.87 US barrels oil = Y US gallons
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 86.87 times 42 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 86.87 * 42 / 1 = 3648.54 US gallons
Answer is: 3648.54 US gallons are equivalent to 86.87 US barrels oil.
