15 gal 1 gallon = 8 pints 1 pint = 0.12 gallon
1.75 gallons 1 gallon = 8 pints 1 pint = 0.12 gallon
1 gallon = 8 pints 1 pint = 0.12 gal
4.37 gal 1 Gallon = 8 pints 1 pint = 0.12 gallon
Oh, isn't that just a happy little question! To convert pints to gallons, you simply divide the number of pints by 8, because there are 8 pints in a gallon.
