I got one for you. Is a fifth of liquor 4/5th of a quart or 1/5th of a gallon?

A fifth is a unit of volume formerly used for distilled beverages in the United States, equal to one fifth of a US liquid gallon, 4 ⁄ 5 quart, or 25 3 ⁄ 5 US fluid ounces (757 ml); it has been superseded by the metric bottle size of 750 ml, sometimes called a metric fifth, which is the standard capacity of wine bottles worldwide and is approximately 1% smaller. ~wiki

In Jolly Ol’ England, the Imperial gallon is bigger. ~ 1.2 times a US Gallon.
