Question

Josh is refilling his pool with clean water. How many gallons of water will it take if the pool is 50m by 25m by 1.5m?

Answer 1

Answer:

V = 493421.05 [gal]

Explanation:

This is a problem that consists of handling units, we can calculate by first-hand the volume, then convert units from cubic meters to gallons.

V = 50 * 25 * 1.5

V = 1875 [m^3]

Now we need to convert units, using the proper conversion factor.

$1875[m^3]*\frac{1000lt}{1m^3} *\frac{1gal}{3.8lt} \\493421.05[gal]$
