Question

The lung capacity of the blue whale is 5200 L . Convert this volume into gallons.

Answer 1

In order to determine the lung capacity of the blue whale in units of gallons, we use the conversion factor: 1 US gallon = 3.7854 liters. We then have the following equation:

Lung capacity of Blue Whale = 5200 L x 1 US gallon/3.7854 liters

Thus, we have determined that the volume of 5200 L is equivalent to 1373.7 US gallons.

Answer 2

Answer : The volume in gallons will be 1373.695 gallons.

Explanation :

The conversion used volume from liters to gallons is :

1 gallon = 3.78541 L

or,

`1\text{ liter}=(1)/(3.78541)\text{ gallon}`

As we are given that the lung capacity of the blue whale is 5200 L. Now we have to convert the volume into gallons.

As,
`1\text{ liter}=(1)/(3.78541)\text{ gallon}`

So,
`5200\text{ liter}=\frac{5200\text{ liter}}{1\text{ liter}}(1)/(3.78541)\text{ gallon}=1373.695\text{ gallons}`

Therefore, the volume in gallons will be 1373.695 gallons.
