Fuel on the 747 is stored mostly in the wings. There is a "center wing" tank that is actually underneath the cabin. Some models of the 747-400 also have fuel in the tail.
The accepted average weight of Jet A fuel is 6.84 pounds per gallon based on specific gravity (but varies based on temperature, additives, etc.) The Boeing 747-400ER can carry more than 63,500 gallons of fuel which is about 434,340 pounds fuel load weight. Information provided by Jet Advisors
There are many types of 747, so I will talk about the most common one - the 747-400. The operational empty weight is 393,000 lbs ( about 196 tons)) and max take off weight is 875,000 lbs (about 480 tons) ALL aircraft differ in weight and in a large aircraft such as the 747, even the full fuel load differs in weight according to temperature.

The 747-800 aircraft can carry up to 63,034 US gallons or 238,610 L of fuel.
It really depends on what you're looking for. The Boeing 747 has a large seating capacity, it is comfortable, stable, and great for long range flights. The Boeing 777 is popular aircraft that airlines are using to replace the 747 in long range flights because of it's efficiency and low fuel consumption. Overall, I like the 747 better because it's more spacious, safe, and confortable.
A Boeing 747 is a jet aircraft, so this is a strange question.

A 747 Classic averages 12,000 kg of fuel per hour. The 747-400 uses about 10,500 kg. per hr. These numbers also depend upon aircraft weight, altitude and temperature.
Boeing make both 747 and 737 Aircraft.
the 744 is a code used for the Boeing 747-400 a model of the 747, the original 747 is smaller than the improved 747-400
A plane like a Boeing 747 uses approximately 1 gallon of fuel (about 4 liters) every second.According to Boeing's Web site, the 747 burns approximately 5 gallons of fuel per mile (12 liters per kilometer).
