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 317 gallons into cubic meters we have to multiply 317 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

317 gal → V_(m3)

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

V_(m3) = 317 gal × 0.0037854118 m3

V_(m3) = 1.1999755406 m3

The final result is:

317 gal → 1.1999755406 m3

We conclude that 317 gallons is equivalent to 1.1999755406 cubic meters:
