Answer:
44,883 gallons
Explanation:
The amount of water the pool can hold can be found by calculating the volume of the pool.
We know that the pool is rectangular, and it is a three dimensional shape (3 dimensions: length, width and depth). Therefore, we can use the formula for finding the volume of a rectangular prism:
V=l*w*h
We know the length is 30 feet and the width is 25 feet. The height is also the depth, so the height is 8 feet.
l= 30 feet
w=25 feet
h= 8 feet
Substitute these values into the formula.
V= 30 feet * 25 feet * 8 feet
Multiply the numbers together.
V= (30 feet * 25 feet) * 8 feet
V= 750 feet^2 * 8 feet
V=6000 feet^3
Now, let's find how many gallons the pool can hold.
1 ft^3 is equal to 7.4805 gallons. Therefore, we can multiply 6000 ft^3 and 7.4805
6000 ft^3 * 7.4805 gallons/1 ft^3
6000* 7.4805 gallons
44,883 gallons
The pool can hold 44,883 gallons of water.
