Mathematical Conversion Derivation via Coherent SI Base Unit

Under the International System of Quantities (ISQ), dimensional conversion between non-SI units is rigorously resolved by bridging through the coherent SI base unit (kilogram per cubic meter (kg/m³)) without arbitrary rounding:

Vtarget=Vsource×(ksource→SIktarget→SI)V_{\text{target}} = V_{\text{source}} \times \left( \frac{k_{\text{source} \to \text{SI}}}{k_{\text{target} \to \text{SI}}} \right)

2. Target SI Bridge (ktarget):1 gr/gal (US) = 0.0171181 kilogram per cubic meter (kg/m³)
Step-by-step substitution for Pound/gallon (UK) → Grain/gallon (US):V(gr/gal (US)) = V(lb/gal (UK)) × ( 99.776373 / 0.0171181 ) = V(lb/gal (UK)) × 5828.716213
