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 5400 gallons into cubic meters we have to multiply 5400 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

5400 gal → V_(m3)

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

V_(m3) = 5400 gal × 0.0037854118 m3

V_(m3) = 20.44122372 m3

The final result is:

5400 gal → 20.44122372 m3

We conclude that 5400 gallons is equivalent to 20.44122372 cubic meters:
