An olympic-size pool is 50. 0 m long and 25. 0 m wide. How many gallons of water (density = 1. 0 g/ml) are needed to fill the pool to an average depth of 4. 8 ft?.

To fill the 50 m long and 25 wide pool to an average depth of 4.8 ft., the needed volume of water is 483,101 gallons

Suppose we have a rectangular prism with length l, width w, and height h, then the volume of the prism is given by:

V = l x w x h

In the problem, the given parameters are:

l = 50 m

w = 25 m

h = 4.8 ft. = 1.463 m

Plug these parameters into the formula:

V = 50 x 25 x 1.463

V = 1,828.75 m³

Next we need to convert m³ to gallons

1 m³ = 264.17 gallons

Hence,

V = 1,828.75 m³ = 1,828.75 x  264.17 gallons

V = 483,101 gallons
