To convert 4000 pints into gallons we have to multiply 4000 by the conversion factor in order to get the volume amount from pints to gallons. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 pt → 0.125 gal

4000 pt → V_(gal)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the volume V in gallons:

V_(gal) = 4000 pt × 0.125 gal

V_(gal) = 500 gal

The final result is:

4000 pt → 500 gal

We conclude that 4000 pints is equivalent to 500 gallons:

4000 pints = 500 gallons
