diamter (d) = 14 inches
\n" ); document.write( " radius (r) = d/2 = 14/2 = 7 inches
\n" ); document.write( "height (h)= 6 inches
\n" ); document.write( " capacity of the tank = volume of the tank
\n" ); document.write( "volume of cylinder (tank) = pi*r^2*h
\n" ); document.write( " capacity of the tank (V) = pi*7^2*6
\n" ); document.write( " (pi=22/7 = 3.14)
\n" ); document.write( " $\"V=+%2822%2F7%29+%2A49%2A6\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"V=+22%2A7%2A6\"$
\n" ); document.write( " V= 924 cubic inches'
\n" ); document.write( "one gallon equals 231 cubie inches
\n" ); document.write( " hence capacity of tank in gallons = 924/231
\n" ); document.write( " =4
\n" ); document.write( "Result : Capacity = 4 gallons
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
