one mile - 5280 feet

one square mile = 5280 x 5280 = 27,878,400 sq ft

since 1 inch = 1/12 ft, the total volume of rain is

27,878,400 / 12 = 2,323,200 cubic ft

since 1 cu ft contains 7.48 gallons of water, then the totalfgallons is

2,323,200 x 7.48 = 17,377,536 gallons (wow,that is a lot of gallons)
