Figuring out how many gallons my tank is?

[lizzieish]

Hi,
Just a quick question, how can I work out how many gallons my dragon's vivarium is? When I bought it, it was sold in feet and inches, no mention of gallons.

I'm now purchasing some new reptile carpet and its sold according to how many gallons the tank is so I could really do with figuring it out!

Many thanks!

Multiply LxWxH to get the cubic volume. Make sure you are working with inches.

Take that number and divide it by 231. That's how many gallons your tank is.

Cool thankyou!

I actually just found a table online that says her tank is 87 gallons (48x24x24 inches) but your method works out at 119 gallons

The 119 sound right?

The 119 is correct, it ends up being 119.5-6~, you can call it 120 gallons for ease lol.
