A really, really large number. (But more than 2.5 times as many dimes would fit in the same barrel -- so if you're offered a barrel full of either dimes or quarters, pick dimes.)
4 quarts to a gallon. IF a 55 gallon drum is actually holding 55 gallons, it would be 4x55=220 quarts.
According to the official weights of U.S. contemporary coins, a quarter weighs 5.67 grams. One pound = 453.59 gms; therefore there are approximately 80 quarters per pound. 18 pounds of quarters times 80 quarters per pound = 1440 quarters at value of .25 cents each is (drum roll please!) . . .$360.00Note: This is only an estimate. A more reliable way would be to measure one pound of quarters on a very reliable scale, count the value of one pound, and then multiply by 18.
dia. of a 50 gal drum = 23". circumference = dia. X pi (22/7). circumference is slightly more than 72".
Not all 55 gallon drums are the same size in height and diameter. To get an accurate check measure the diameter in inches and divide by .5 (this is the radius). Square that number - multiply by pi (3.14) and divide by 231. This will give you the gallons per inch. Good Luck Bob Raymond Bob.Raymond@kelleytech.com
For petroleum, 1 drum = 220 liters.
A fifty-five gallon drum can range from about fifty dollars to five thousand dollars depending not he kind of material they can't the drum out of. Cheap plastic would be the lower price while strong metal would be the greater.
You pour four gallons into the five gallon drum, and take the ten gallon drum with the other four gallons of oil in that.
A quarter is 808.5 mm3. If you melted the quarters into a slurry, and poured that into the barrel, you could fit 208 million/808.5 = 257,000 quarters into a 55 gallon drum. If you want to preserve them whole, this becomes a stacking problem. There will be spaces between the quarters, and we would have to estimate how much space is wasted. Just drawing packed circles on a piece of paper I'd guess perhaps 10% of the volume would be air, so deducting 25,000 quarters from our solid mass gives a ballpark estimate of 225,000 quarters.
4 quarts to a gallon. IF a 55 gallon drum is actually holding 55 gallons, it would be 4x55=220 quarts.
Fill the 5-gallon drum. Pour the contents into the 3-gallon drum, filling it. Now you have 2 gallons left in the big one.Empty the 3-gallon drum. Pour the 2 gallons into it. At this point there is room for one more gallon.Now refill the 5-gallon drum and pour off as much as it takes to fill up the small one. That means you are removing one gallon.Now you have exactly 4 gallons in the 5-gallon drum.or Fill the 3 gallon drum. Pour the contents into the 5 gallon drum. Refill the the 3 gallon drum and pour the contents into the 5 gallon drum until it is full. Empty the 5 gallon drum. You have 1 gallon left in the 3 gallon drum. Pour the remaining 1 gallon into the 5 gallon drum. Re-fill the 3-gallon drum and pour that into the 5 gallon drum giving you 4 gallons. or Tip the 5 gallon drum and fill it until water is level to both the bottom and spilling out the top; next do the same with the 3 gallon drum; then pour the half full 3 gallon drum into the half full 5 gallon drum, rusulting in 2.5 plus 1.5 equals 4 gallons! orWatch Die Hard 3 for the answer.
A five-gallon drum can hold up to about 18.927 liters.
A 150-gallon drum contains 0.0036 gallon per cubic inch.
A standard, 55 US gallon / 44 Imperial gallon drum would lead me to believe you would have a 550 US Gallon tank.
There are 0.668 cubic feet in a 5 gallon bucket and 7.352 cubic feet in a 55 gallon drum.
All, or most armies (and navies too) utilize the drum to establish cadence (rhythm) for marching men or sounding to quarters aboard a warship (Man O War). Which is why sounding to quarters is (or was) often called "Beat to quarters" (to the sound of the drum).
One gallon of paint weighs approximately 8.33 pounds. Therefore 55 gallons would weigh 458.15 pounds. Factoring in a weight of 25 pounds for the drum, the total would be about 483.15 pounds.
Thereare different shapes of drum, but most 25 gallon drums are about 30 inches high
