How many gallons of water does a 20 foot by 4 feet pool hold?
To calculate the volume of water a pool would hold, you need THREE dimensions - length, breadth and DEPTH, which is missing in your question. To calculate the number of gallons of water a 20 feet by 4 feet by 1 feet pool would hold, do this: Multiply 20 X 4 X 1 = 80 feet3 Convert this to gallons [by typing "80 cubic feet in gallons" in Google] The value is 598.441 US gallons. That's your answer. If the depth is 2 feet, multiply this value by 2. If the depth is 3, multiply 598.441 by 3, and so on.

How do you calculate the volume of a cylindrical aquarium?
First measure the height of the aquarium, and the diameter of the aquarium in inches. Remember to account for the thickness of the glass, and the trim. Now divide the diameter by 2 to get the radius(r), and then multiply the radius by itself. Multiply that by the height(h) in inches, and multiply the whole thing by pi (3.14). This will give you cubic inches, now multiply that by 0.004329 to convert the answer to US gallons. In summary: Volume in gallons = (pi*r2*h)(0.004329)
How many gallons is your aquarium 18x18x36?
1.33 gallonsAssuming that you mean 36cm x 14cm x 12cm, multiplying these together gives 6048 cm3. Converting this to dm3 (which is in other words, 1 litre) by dividing by 1000 gives 6.048. Then, by dividing by 4.55 you get 1.3292307 etc. which rounds up to 1.33 to three significant figures.
