US Gallon
A US gallon (gal) is a common unit of volume used mainly in the United States for measuring liquids such as fuel, milk, and other beverages. One US gallon equals 4 quarts, 8 pints, or 128 fluid ounces, making it a practical size for everyday containers and large-scale liquid purchases. It’s widely recognized at gas stations and in grocery stores, where gallon jugs are frequently sold.
Because the US gallon differs from the Imperial gallon used in the UK, conversions can get confusing across countries. An online converter helps accurately translate gallons into liters or other units for travel, shopping, or cooking with international recipes.
Fluid Ounce
A fluid ounce (fl oz) is a common US customary unit of volume used to measure liquids such as beverages, cooking ingredients, and personal care products. One US fluid ounce equals 1/8 of a cup or about 29.57 milliliters. You’ll often find this unit printed on drink bottles, medicine labels, and kitchen tools where precise small measurements are needed.
Because the fluid ounce is commonly used in the United States while many other countries rely on the metric system, converting fluid ounces to milliliters, cups, or liters is a frequent need. A converter helps provide quick, accurate results that make cooking and product comparisons easier.
