Answer:

The answer is "1223.42 gallons".

Explanation:

Given:

$Diameter\ (d)= 7\ feet\\\\r=(d)/(2)=(7)/(2)=3.5\ feet\\\\h= 4\ feet\ 3\ inches\ = 4.25 \ feet \\\\$

Using formula:

$Volume = \pi r^2h$

Put the value into the above formula:

$= \pi (3.5)^2 (4.25)\\\\= 3.14 *12.25* (4.25)\\\\= 3.14 * 52.0625 \\\\=163.47625\\\\= 163.56 \ feet^3\\\\= 163.56 \ feet^3$

$\therefore \\\\1 \ foot^3 = 7.48051945\ US\ gallons\\\\$

Final answer:

$\to (163.56)(7.48) = 1223.42\ gallons$
