Volume of a Garden Pond

Medium Measurement Volume And Capacity

A gardener is planning to fill a rectangular garden pond with water. The pond has the following dimensions:

  • Length: 4 feet
  • Width: 3 feet
  • Depth: 2 feet

To find out how many gallons of water the pond can hold, the gardener needs to calculate the volume of the pond. The volume of a rectangular prism can be calculated using the formula:

$$V = l imes w imes h$$

where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height (or depth). Remember that 1 cubic foot is equivalent to approximately 7.48 gallons. What is the total capacity of the pond in gallons?
