Step 1: calculate the volume of the pool:

# cubic feet = 18 * 12 * 4.5

Step 2: convert to gallons:

1 US gallon = 0.133680556 cubic feet

Unanswerable. How full is the pool? or is the "4.5 feet deep" the depth of the water, not the pool?

If the tank were completely full to those dimensions there would be 7260.84 gallons of water in it.
