Formula Used
The relationship between pints and gallons is fixed at 8 pints per gallon in both the US liquid system and the Imperial (UK) system. However, the absolute sizes of pints and gallons differ between the two systems (US pint ≈ 473.176 mL; US gallon ≈ 3,785.41 mL; Imperial pint ≈ 568.261 mL; Imperial gallon ≈ 4,546.09 mL). The ratio remains identical, so conversion is simply:
gallons = pints ÷ 8pints = gallons × 8
When converting, choose the system that matches your source measurement to maintain consistency.
