Answer:

253,841 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cylinder is:

V = π r² h

where r is the radius (half the diameter), and h is the height.

We're given r = 30 ft / 2 = 15 ft, and h = 48 ft.  Let's convert to yards:

r = 15 ft × (1 yd / 3ft) = 5 yd

h = 48 ft  × (1 yd / 3ft) = 16 yd

Plugging in:

V = π (5 yd)² (16 yd)

V = 1256.6 yd³

Converting to gallons:

V = 1256.6 yd³ × (202 gal / yd³)

V = 253840.7 gal

Rounded to the nearest gallon, the tank's capacity is 253,841 gallons.

since we know the diameter is 30 feet, then its radius is half that or 15 feet.

\bf \textit{volume of a cylinder}\\\\ V=\pi r^2 h \begin{cases} r=&radius\\ h=&height\\ \cline{1-2} r=&15~ft\\ &5~yd\\ h=&48~ft\\ &16~yd \end{cases}\implies V=\pi (5)^2(16)\implies V=400\pi ~yd^3 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \begin{array}{ccll} yd^3&gallons\\ \cline{1-2} 1&202\\ 400\pi &x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{1}{400\pi }=\cfrac{202}{x}\\\\\\ x=(400\pi )(202)\implies x\approx 253840.69
