Maple sap is on average about 2% sugar. Therefore it takes about 40 gallons of maple sap to make one gallon of maple syrup. A rough way to calculate this is called the "Jones Rule of 86", which states: 86 / sap sugar content (in %) = # of gallons sap required to make 1 gal syrup.

For all maple trees you need 40 - 50 gallons of maple sap to make one gallon of syrup. No more or no less. You have to have almost exactly that much.
