Hi,

For calculation of total fuel do we multiply it by specific gravity ratio?

Yes. Make sure that the fuel has been converted to litres. If you multiply by the specific gravity you will get the number of kg that many litres would weigh.

Hi Bob tait,

thanks for the fast reply.

I mean just for the tabulation to litres, 1 USG= 3.785L, do we need to multiply by specific gravity?

In the question above, the calculation is 57 USG = 1 USG/ 3.785L = 57 * 3.785 = 215.745L


thanks.
