To find the volume of a cylinder (in this case the pipe) we use the equation for the area of the end circle (pi*r^2) and multiply it by the length of the cylinder (h). This gives us the equation pi*r^2*h. Our radius is half the diameter (1.5 inches) and our height/length is 8 feet or 96 inches.
In our case this equates to pi*(1.5in)^2(96in)=216pi = 678.6in^3. Since there are 231 cubic inches in a gallon, there are 678.6/231 = 2.94 gallons of water in the pipe.
