Three significantly different sizes are in current use: the imperial gallon defined as 4.54609 litres, which is used in the United Kingdom, Canada, and some Caribbean nations; the US gallon defined as 231 cubic inches (3.785 L), which is used in the US and some Latin American and Caribbean countries; and the least-used US dry gallon defined as 1/8 US bushel (4.405 L).
Inch Cube (abbreviations: in3, or ci): is the volume of a cube with each of its three dimensions (length, width, and depth) being one inch long.
How to Convert US Gallons to Inches Cube
Example: How many inches cube are equivalent to 47.1 US gallons?
As;
1 US gallons = 231 inches cube
47.1 US gallons = Y inches cube
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 47.1 times 231 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 47.1 * 231 / 1 = 10880.1 inches cube
Answer is: 10880.1 inches cube are equivalent to 47.1 US gallons.
