Answer: About 483,168.96 gallons

Explanation:

We can find the volume of this pool to see how many gallons of water are needed to fill the pool. We will need all the measurements to have the same units. We can use the given formula and substitute our given values.

V = LWH

V = (50 m)(25 m)(4.8 ft)

V = (50 m)(25 m)(1.46304 m)

V = 1,828.8 m³

Next, we will find the gallons. To do this, we will multiply the cubic meter volume value by 264.2.

1,828.8 * 264.2 = 483,168.96 gallons
