    I never give real answers for homework questions. When they use the wrong answer, they learn to do their own work. By the way, who has a pool that is only one inch deep? I had to remove my answer because you had to go an act all superior over it and ruin my attempt to get the kid to do his own homework. *chuckle*

    Your answer is wrong by my calculations.

    120 inches X 120 inches X 1 inch = 14400 cubic inches.
    1 cubic foot = (12 inches x 12 inches x 12 inches) 1,728 cu.in.
    Divide 14,400 by 1,728 = 8.33 cu.ft.
    Multiply the cubic feet by the amount of water per cubic foot, which is 7.48 gallons.
    8.33 cu.ft. X 7.48 = 62.31 gallons

    Where's your break down for your answer?
