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 502 gallons into cubic meters we have to multiply 502 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

502 gal → V_(m3)

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

V_(m3) = 502 gal × 0.0037854118 m3

V_(m3) = 1.9002767236 m3

The final result is:

502 gal → 1.9002767236 m3

We conclude that 502 gallons is equivalent to 1.9002767236 cubic meters:

502 gallons = 1.9002767236 cubic meters
