Question

How many liters are in 8 gal? Conversion factors: 1 L = 1 qt, and 4 qt = 1 gal. Show all work using dimensional analysis

Answer 1

First, we need to convert gallons to quarts using the conversion factor: 1 gal = 4 qt.

So, 8 gal = 8 * 4 qt = 32 qt.

Next, we can convert quarts to liters using the conversion factor: 1 L = 1 qt.

Therefore, 32 qt = 32 L.

Thus, there are 32 liters in 8 gallons.
