About Converting Imperial pints to Cubic Centimeters
Imperial pint and Cubic Centimeter appear side by side at fuel pumps and on beverage labels, since the US measures liquids in gallons while most of the world uses liters. Imperial pint is most often used for uk and irish pub beer/cider serving (a legally protected serving size).
Formula
cubic centimeters = imperial pints × 568.26125
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 imperial pint equals 0.00056826125 base units, and 1 cubic centimeter equals 0.000001 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct imperial pint-to-cubic centimeter factor of 568.26125.
Simple example
1 imp pt × 568.26125 = 568.26125 cm3
1 imperial pint = 568.26125 cubic centimeters.
Real-world example
10 imp pt × 568.26125 = 5,682.6125 cm3
10 imperial pints = 5,682.6125 cubic centimeters.
