\n" ); document.write( "Your tank is cylinder that is \"47\" inches in diameter so its radius is \"23.5in\". \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The volume of a cylinder is \"V=Pi%2A+r%5E2%2A+L=500galons\" where \"r+\"is the radius, \"L\" is the length and \"Pi\" is approximately \"3.14\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Thus the volume of your tank is\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"500galons=3.14%2A+%2823.5in%29%5E2%2A+L\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"500galons=3.14%2A+%28552.25%29in%5E2%2A+L\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"500galons=+%281734.065%29in%5E2%2A+L\"...now find \"L\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"500galons%2F+%281734.065%29in%5E2=+L\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"0.29galons%2F+in%5E2=+L\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " now convert gallons to cubic inches: \"1\"gallon is equal to \"231+in%5E3\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"0.29%2A231+%28in%5E3%2F+in%5E2%29=+L\"...reduce\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"66.99+%28in%5Ecross%283%291%2F+in%5Ecross%282%29%29=+L\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"66.99in=+L\".......so, the length (or height) is \"66.99in\"\r
