Unit History
About gallon
The gallon is a traditional measure of volume still used in the United States and parts of the Commonwealth. However, the US gallon (about 3.785 liters) differs from the imperial gallon (about 4.546 liters). Gallons commonly measure larger fluid amounts, such as fuel, and remain integral in contexts like US fuel economy ratings and British beer sales.
About cubic inch
One cubic inch is the volume of a cube with each side measuring an inch. Though it is a relatively small unit of measure, it has a long history in engineering and manufacturing contexts. Engine displacement in older American cars was often described in cubic inches, illustrating how deeply ingrained it is in certain fields.
