What is the volume in US gallons of a cylinder measuring 120 inches in diameter and 60 inches long?

First find the volume of the cylinder which is the area of the base (a circle) times the length.
Area of the circle:
A=pi*r2
Here I'll use 3.14 as an approximation of pi and r, the radius is half the diameter (60 in.)
3.14*602
11304 in2
This is the area of the circle. Now multiply that by the length:
11304 in2 * 60 in = 678240 in3
This is the volume in cubic inches of the cylinder.
Now you need to convert cubic inches to gallons.
I looked it up online, so not sure if it's accurate, but my source says
1 US Gallon = 231 Cubic Inches
Therefore, 678240/231 = approximately 2936 US Gallons(rounded to nearest whole number)

How many gallons of water are in a cylinder with a diameter of 19 inches and a height of 12 inches?
A cylinder with a diameter of 19 inches and a height of 12 inches can hold up to 14.73 gallons of water.
How many gallons in a cylinder 12 inches diameter and 36 inches long?
1 gallon = 231 cubic inchesVolume of a cylinder = (pi) R2 L = (pi) (6)2 (36) = 1296 pi = 4,071.5 cubic inches = 17.626 gallons
How many gallons in a cylinder 17 inches diameter by 17 inches lenghth?
The answer will depend on US or UK gallons there are because both have different measures of capacity. But the volume of the cylinder: pi*8.52*17 = 3858.661 cubic inches to 3 decimal place.
How many gallons of water will it take to fill a 12 inch diameter cylinder 10 feet long?
To answer this question, you can calculate the volume of the cylinder in cubic inches, then use the fact that a gallon is 231 cubic inches to convert to gallons. Cylinder volume is the cylinder base area (the circle that is 12 inches in diameter) times the height. Cylinder base area: 12 inch diameter, using pi x r2 = 3.14159 x 62 = 113 in2. Cylinder volume: 113 in2 x 10 ft x 12 in/ft = 13560 in3. Conversion to gallons: 13560 in3 (divided by) 231 in3/gallon = 58.7 gallons.
