It depends on the shape of the container. For example: the volume of a container that is shaped like a cube (or a cuboid) would be calculated by simply multiplying the length, width, and height of the container together. For a cylinder, you would use the formula: pi × radius^2 × height.

Fill it with water. Then carefully pour all the water into a graduate container and read off the volume form the markings on the latter.
surface area of triangle times the width/height of container.
You don't need a formula, which is lucky, because there isn't any.All you have to know is the volume of the container it's in.Gas always expands to fill the entire volume of the container.
A container holds volume.
You can use either your eyes, calculate the volume or practically pour liquids in a given container to find out which one has a bigger volume.
To find the volume of an object, we use an overflow cylinder as it gives a measure of the volume of the object by displacing an equal amount of water into the beaker.
