How to Convert Cubic Feet to Gallons

To convert cubic feet to gallons, multiply the volume by the following conversion ratio: 7.4805195 gallons/cubic foot.

Since one cubic foot is equal to 7.4805195 gallons, you can use this simple formula to convert:

gallons = cubic feet × 7.4805195

The volume in gallons is equal to the volume in cubic feet multiplied by 7.4805195.

For example, here's how to convert 100 cubic feet to gallons using the formula above.

gallons = (100 ft³ × 7.4805195) = 748.0519481 gal (US)

How Many Gallons Are in a Cubic Foot?

There are 7.4805195 gallons in a cubic foot, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 ft³ = 7.4805195 gal (US)|1 gal (US) = 0.1336806 ft³

Our cubic foot to gallon calculator automatically converts your volume measurements with full decimal and scientific precision across US customary, imperial, and SI metric standards.

Cubic Feet and gallons are both units used to measure volume. Keep reading to learn more about each unit.

What Is a Cubic Foot?

A cubic foot is a unit of volume equal to 28.3168466 liters (L), the base unit for volume. Equal to 1,728 cubic inches or 28.3168 liters. [1]

The cubic foot is classified as a US customary and imperial unit of volume. Cubic Feet can be abbreviated as ft³; for example, 1 cubic foot can be written as 1 ft³.

When working with cubic feet (ft³) in formulas or technical specifications, always verify whether your target system uses SI metric, US customary, or British imperial standards.

In practice, cubic feet (ft³) are widely used across standard volume applications within US customary and imperial workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.

What Is a Gallon?

A gallon is a unit of volume equal to 3.7854118 liters (L), the base unit for volume. US liquid gallon defined as exactly 231 cubic inches (3.78541 L). [2]

The gallon is classified as a US customary unit of volume. Gallons can be abbreviated as gal (US); for example, 1 gallon can be written as 1 gal (US).

When working with gallons (gal (US)) in formulas or technical specifications, always verify whether your target system uses SI metric, US customary, or British imperial standards.

In practice, gallons (gal (US)) are widely used across standard volume applications within US customary workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.

When converting volume between cubic feet (ft³) and gallons (gal (US)), keep full floating-point precision (1 ft³ = 7.4805195 gal (US); 1 gal (US) = 0.1336806 ft³) during intermediate calculations and round only the final gallon figure to match your instrument tolerance.
