millimetres (centimetres could also be used)
Nothing. It is an abbreviation for gallon, but the gallon is NOT part of the metric system.
3 pounds---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Pound is a unit of mass and gallon is a unit of volume !But considering the density of milk approx. 1 g/cm3 and an US gallon the mass is 8,67 pounds.
One US gallon of producer's milk (not skimmed, semi-skimmed, homogenised etc), weighs 10.1 pounds-force in customary measure and 44.5 newton in metric measure.
The litre. It's metric. They went metric in the 60s.

None, really, because a gallon is not a metric unit. A litre is the appropriate unit to use for measuring volumes.
Kilograms +++ That is the correct metric unit of mass to use, but you would not normally mix unit systems like that. You'd either convert the gallon to litres, or stick to Imperial for both. ' So a gallon of milk (US or UK gallon) weighs a certain number of pounds; a litre of milk weighs a certain number of kilogrammes.
Convert gallon to appropriate metric units.
No, it is an imperial unit of measure.
1 metric tonne = 2 204.62262 pounds1 gallon of milk = 8.5 lbs2204.62262/8.5=259.367367059 gallons of milk per metric ton (approx)
liter
Since gallon is a volume unit and the metric ton is a weight unit there is no possible conversion factor. It all depends on the density of the material.
A gallon is an imperial measurement, litres and millilitres are metric. 1 gallon is equal to about 4.5 litres.
