A cylindrical swimming pool is approximately 12 feet wide and 4 feet deep. About how many gallons of water can the swimming pool contain? Remember that 1 cubic foot is approximately 7.48 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the swimming pool is cylindrical, we would find its volume by applying the formula for determining the volume of a cylinder which is expressed as

Volume = πr²h

Where

r represents radius of the cylinder

h represents height

π = constant = 3.14

From the information given,

Diameter = 12 feet

Radius, r = diameter/2 = 12/2 = 6 feet

h = 4 feet

Volume = 3.14 × 6² × 4 = 452.16ft³

Since 1 cubic foot is approximately 7.48 gallons, the number of gallons of water that the swimming pool can contain is

452.16 × 7.48 = 3382.16 gallons
