You can put this solution on YOUR website! What is the volume in gallons and barrels of a tank that is 8'w,8'T,30'L
------------
Vol = L*W*H = 8*8*30 = 1920 cubic feet
------------
1 cu ft =~ 7.48 US gallons
Vol = 1920*7.48 = 14362 gallons
----------
There are different size barrels used. The petroleum industry uses 42 gallon barrels, a wine barrel is 33 gallons, and there are 55 gallon drums.
Divide 14362 by the one you mean.
