if the diameter of the well is 6 feet, then it's radius is 3 feet.
\n" ); document.write( "R = 3 feet
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "water is 7 feet deep
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "volume of water in the well is pi*R^2*h.
\n" ); document.write( "this becomes pi*9*7
\n" ); document.write( "pi = 3.141592654
\n" ); document.write( "volume of water in the well becomes 197.9203372 cubic feet
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "there are 7.48 gallons of water to a cubic foot.
\n" ); document.write( "number of gallons in the well = 197.9203372 / 7.48 = 26.45993813 gallons
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "answer to the nearest 100th of a gallon is 26.46 gallons.
