[AJD] 3rd grade math question...

EXCELLENT!

yes, diameter, not circumference. Had to stop and think of the difference
betwixt the two.

Appreciate the help. I guestimated 125 Gallons. 146 is much gooder.

Bobby,
         30" in circumference or diameter? If that is the diameter and the
length (or height) is 48", then it will hold 146 gallons. Change the inches
to feet and put into formula below.

3.1417 x R² x D = Cubic Feet,   x 7.47 = Gallons

3.1417 x 1.25' squared x 4' = 19.635, x 7.47 = 146.68 gallons

If it's circumference;

3.1417 x 0.3975' squared x 4' = 1.99, x 7.47 = 14.83 gallons
