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 lb/Mgal (US) = 1.198264 × 10⁻⁷ kilogram per cubic meter (kg/m³)
Step-by-step substitution for Pound/million gallon (UK) → Pound/million gallon (US):V(lb/Mgal (US)) = V(lb/Mgal (UK)) × ( 9.977636 × 10⁻⁸ / 1.198264 × 10⁻⁷ ) = V(lb/Mgal (UK)) × 0.832674
