About the US gallon and the US pint

The US gallon

The US liquid gallon equals exactly 3.785411784 liters, defined as 231 cubic inches. It is the standard fuel and milk unit in the United States. The US gallon is about 16.7% smaller than the UK (imperial) gallon (4.54609 L), so quoting fuel economy as 'mpg' without specifying the gallon can mislead by a wide margin.

The US pint

The US liquid pint equals exactly 473.176473 mL, defined as 1/8 of a US gallon. The imperial pint (UK) is 568.26125 mL — about 20% larger, which is why a 'pint of beer' in London is noticeably bigger than the same in New York.
