Conversion formula

The conversion factor from gallons to cubic meters is 0.0037854118, which means that 1 gallon is equal to 0.0037854118 cubic meters:

1 gal = 0.0037854118 m3

To convert 240 gallons into cubic meters we have to multiply 240 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from gallons to cubic meters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 gal → 0.0037854118 m3

240 gal → V_(m3)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the volume V in cubic meters:

V_(m3) = 240 gal × 0.0037854118 m3

V_(m3) = 0.908498832 m3

The final result is:

240 gal → 0.908498832 m3

We conclude that 240 gallons is equivalent to 0.908498832 cubic meters:

240 gallons = 0.908498832 cubic meters
