I thought it was IG * 1.2 = USG? I checked and it said the same thing here:

An Imperial gallon is bigger than a puny U.S. gallon. The conversion
factor is 1.2009499. To convert from IG to US, multiply by that
factor. To convert MPG (in IG) to MPG (in US), divide by that factor.
This assumes we are talking U.S. statute miles, and not U.K. admiralty
miles or such.
Now converting dollars/gallon from the U.S. system to the Can. one,
that is more difficult.

Oh right ...miles over gallons means it's a division. Yep ...I'm dumb.
Thanks for clearing that up.

Right. If it took 1 Imperial Gallon to go 37 miles, it would take 1.2 US
Gallons to go those same 37 miles. 37/1.2=30mpg.
