Explanation

Formula: Liters = Imperial Gallon × 4.54609. Why: tank and hold-capacity units are tied to fixed volume definitions, so the route normalizes through one volumetric basis before applying the target unit.

Imperial Gallons (Imp gal): a UK imperial liquid-volume unit used in some marine and fuel-capacity references.

Liters (L): a metric liquid-volume unit used for smaller tank, fuel, and onboard capacity references.

This route is useful when translating tank, hold, and onboard liquid-capacity values across metric and gallon-based systems for storage, fueling, and vessel operations.

This conversion is purely multiplicative because both units reduce through one fixed marine reference basis for the active family, with no offset.
