Step 2. Determine weight of 1 gallon of fuel:
(8.33 lb) X .7887 = 6.57 lb
Step 3. Determine the number of gallons:
325 + 6.57 = 50 gallons
Example: Convert 100 gal JP-8 (SG = 0.8063) to pounds.
Step 1. Determine weight of 1 gallon of JP-8
8.33 b x 0.80631 = 6.72 lb per gal
Step 2. Determine weight of 100 gal of JP-8
100 gal JP-8 x 6.72 lb per gal = 672 pounds
