Answer:

7,425 gallons of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A tank of,

Length = 16.5 ft

Width = 7.5 ft

Height = 8 ft

1 ft³ = 7.5 gallons of water

Required:

Gallons of water that will fill the tank

SOLUTION:

Find the volume of the tank:

Volume of the tank = length*width*height

Volume = 16.5*7.5*8 = 990 ft³

Convert 990 ft³ to gallons of water:

1 ft³ = 7.5 gallons

990 ft³ = $990*7.5$

= 7,425 gallons of water

7,425 gallons of water will fill the tank of the given measurement.
