Question
What is the volume of a swimming pool 45 feet wide, 75 feet long, and an average of 5 feet, 6 inches deep? (Compute to nearest cubic foot.)


Answer
assuming its a perfect box shape and not like one of those swimming pools that go from 5ft to 10ft or 3ft to 6ft which most swimming pools do, then

5ft and 6 inches, since 6 inches is half a foot

V = 45 * 75 * 5.5 = 18563ft^3 when rounded to the nearest cubic foot.
