Interpreting your result
Check the unit definition carefully. US liquid gallons differ from imperial gallons, and weight ounces differ from fluid ounces. The result is rounded for display; the stated conversion factor controls the calculation.
Comparing alternatives
Save the first result as scenario A, then change one input. The comparison shows the numeric difference; it does not label either result as better. Choose inputs that describe realistic alternatives. Values shown on screen are rounded, so calculations from rounded intermediate results may differ slightly.
