Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To convert liters to gallons, first convert liters to milliliters (1 liter = 1000 mL), then convert milliliters to pints, and finally convert pints to gallons. 210.8 liters is 210,800 mL. Since 1 pint is 473.2 mL, 210,800 mL is approximately 445.32 pints. Since 1 gallon is 8 pints, 445.32 pints is approximately 55.67 gallons, which rounds to 55.69 gallons.
