I assume you want to find out how much water fits in the hose. Treat the hose as a cylinder - that should be a good approximation, even when you bend it. Measure the length and the interior diameter. Divide the diameter by 2 to get the radius. Convert everything to feet, and finally use the formula for a cylinder to get the volume.
Volume of a hose in gallons =
(pi) x (1/2 the diameter of the hose in inches)2 x (length of the hose in inches) / 231
1.03 gallons

50 feet of 2.5-inch diameter hose has a volume of: 1.7 cubic feet (12.72 liquid gallons)
A water hose is a cylinder, and since the volume of a cylinder is pi*r^2*height, we can calculate the volume of the water hose by finding the radius and height. A 3 inch hose has a radius of 1.5 inches, and 50 ft is equal to 600 inches, so 1.5^2 is 2.25, and 2.25*600 is 1,350. Finally we multiply by Pi to get approximately 4,239 cubic inches. Since 1 cubic inch is equal to 0.00432 gallons, there are 18.3506 gallons.
how do i calculate the volumn of backwash in a pool
A standard fire hose is 50 feet long. A hose this length with a 2-inch radius grants about 4.36 cubic feet. This volume holds 32 gallons of water.
Use the formula for a cylinder to calculate the volume. This volume will be in cubic feet; you can then convert that to gallons.
Multiply length by width by height to get volume, then convert to gallons. 216000 in cubed is 935.1 gallons
You would need a 3rd dimension to calculate a volume.
Volume of a cylinder = (pi) x (radius)2 x (length) Volume of the hose = (pi) x (2 in)2 x (1200 in) = 15,080 cubic inches= 65.28 gallons That's the volume of the hose. We have no way to tell how much water there may be in it.
8.15 gallons
Gallons is one unit used to measure the volume of a liquid. Other units include liters, cups, quarts etc. Question may be referring to the precision of the measurement. eg calculating the volume of a pool to the gallon.
