What formula do I use to determine how many gallons of water are in a 10' by 15' pool?

Answer 1

One cubic feet of water is 7.48 gallons.
Find the volume of water in your swimming pool.
Suppose it is V cubic feet.
(If your pool has the same depth d feet every where, then
V = (10)(15)(d) = 150 d)
Then the number of gallons of water is V/7.48.

(If the depth is not the same every where, you can make an estimate of the number of gallons, by taking d = average depth)

Answer 2

use length times width times depth so 10 times 15 which is 150 and then 150 times however deep the pool is

Answer 3

Is it circular or rectangular? If it's circular, which dimension is the diameter and which is the depth? If it's rectangular, you need the third dimension.

If it's circular, then the volume is (pi)*(diameter/2)^2*depth. If it's rectangular, it's length*width*depth. Either way, once you have the volume in cubic feet, multiply by 7.48 to get the number of gallons.

Answer 4

i am more familiar with the metric system (so shoud you!!!)
1 ft=12 in= 0.30 m
so 10ftx 15ft = 3m x 4.5 m
you shoud calculate the volume of your pool, so you need to measure the deep of your pool, and appy the formula

wxaxh= 3 x 45.5 x h

then you should make a conversion to liters of water, knowing that in
1 cm3 = 1mL

so with that you can figure out how many liters of water your pool can hold

Answer 5

you find out the area or volume or your pool and thier you go! when you bought the house they should tell you if its a 70 gallon pool etc.

Answer 6

Forget the pool! Jonay has discovered the long-sought fourth spelling of

there
their
they're

and ...

thier

There you go!!

Answer 7

You'd need the depth as well to figure that out accurately.

Answer 8

you need depth then you multiply all the numbers together
