Question

A family pool holds 10,000 gallons of water. How many cubic meters is this ?

Answer 1

To find out how many cubic meters 10,000 gallons of water is, you convert the gallons to liters and then the liters to cubic meters, resulting in approximately 37.85 cubic meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert gallons to cubic meters, we need to know that one gallon is approximately equal to 3.78541 liters and that there are 1,000 liters in a cubic meter. Thus, to convert 10,000 gallons to cubic meters, we first convert gallons to liters and then liters to cubic meters as follows:

• 
  
• Convert gallons to liters: 10,000 gallons × 3.78541 liters/gallon = 37,854.1 liters
• 
  
• Convert liters to cubic meters: 37,854.1 liters ÷ 1,000 liters/cubic meter = 37.8541 cubic meters

Therefore, 10,000 gallons is approximately 37.85 cubic meters of water.

Answer 2

It would be 40 cubic meters. You would multiply the 10,000 gallons by 1/264.2 cubic meters, and turn the answer into 40 cubic meters.
