I meant I have the square miles and the depth. Does the volume equal the sq miles x depth?

Pure Water weights about 62.4 pounds per cubic foot. One pound contains 16 ounces. So figure out the number of cubic feet of water in the lake and then the number of pounds of water and then the number of ounces.

yes the square feet times the depth would give you the volume of the lake in cubic feet
then you would have to find the volume of an ounce related to a cubic foot or convert all the lake cubic feet to gallons and then find the relationship of an ounce to one gallon. Then divide the ounce into the cubic feet or the gallons to get the answer

You would need to first find the volume, which is area (sq ft) by depth in feet. This will give you volume in cubic feet.
Then you would need the conversion factor between oz and cu. ft. which is about 957.5 ounces per cubic foot.
