Answer:

The value is
P = 29400 \ Pa

Step-by-step explanation

From the question we are told that

The width of the pool is
w = 9.0 \ m

The length is
l = 24.0 \ m

The depth is
d = 3.0 \ m

Generally the pressure is mathematically represented as


P = \rho * g * d

here
\rho = 1000 \ kg / m^3 the density of water

=>
P = 1000 * 9.8 * 3

=>
P = 29400 \ Pa
