About Converting Carats per Imperial gallon to Long tons per Gallon
Carat per Imperial gallon and Long ton per Gallon both measure density — mass per unit volume — a property used to identify materials, check manufacturing quality, and predict whether something floats or sinks. As a fixed reference point, water has a density of exactly 1000 kg/m³ (1 g/cm³, 1 g/mL) at its temperature of maximum density, which is why many density figures in science and engineering are quoted relative to water. Both are mass per volume density units.
Formula
long tons per gallon = carats per imperial gallon × 1.639047e-7
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 carat per imperial gallon equals 0.0439938496598 base units, and 1 long ton per gallon equals 268411.19719 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct carat per imperial gallon-to-long ton per gallon factor of 1.639047e-7.
Simple example
1 ct/imp gal × 1.639047e-7 = 1.639047e-7 long ton/gal
1 carat per imperial gallon = 1.639047e-7 long tons per gallon.
Real-world example
1,000 ct/imp gal × 1.639047e-7 = 0.0001639047 long ton/gal
1,000 carats per imperial gallon = 0.0001639047 long tons per gallon.
