Weight Per Gallon Formula
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Weight Per Gallon.
WPG = W / G
Variables:
- WPG is the Weight Per Gallon (lbs/gallon)
- W is the total weight of the object or substance (lbs)
- G is the total volume (gallons)
How to Calculate Weight Per Gallon?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Weight Per Gallon.
- First, determine the total weight of the object or substance (lbs).
- Next, determine the total volume (gallons).
- Next, gather the formula from above = WPG = W / G.
- Finally, calculate the Weight Per Gallon.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
total weight of the object or substance (lbs) = 100
total volume (gallons) = 50
WPG = W / G = ?
