How to Convert US Gallons to US Barrels Oil
Example: How many US barrels oil are equivalent to 87.86 US gallons?
As;
1 US gallons = 0.02381 US barrels oil
87.86 US gallons = Y US barrels oil
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 87.86 times 0.02381 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 87.86 * 0.02381 / 1 = 2.0919466 US barrels oil
Answer is: 2.0919466 US barrels oil are equivalent to 87.86 US gallons.
