I have a Cylinder which is 34" x 72" how many gallons will it hold?

Doug

If a cylinder has base radius r inches and height h inches then the volume is

V = r² h cubic inches

When you say you have a cylinder that is 34 " 72" I assume you mean that the diameter of the base is 34" and the height is 72". In this case the radius of the base is 17 " and hence the volume is

V = 17² 72 = 65370.3 cubic inches.

There are 231 cubic inches in an american gallon and hence the volume of your cylinder is

 ^65370.3/₂₃₁ = 283.0 gallons
