How Much Water Will It Take To Fill A Swimming Pool The Size Of 18x40 And 54 Inches In Depth?

I have a new pool and was wondering how much it would cost to fill it.

    This is for U.S. Measurements:
    If your pool is like a box, (rectangular, straight sides, right angles) you can calculate the volume just  like you would a box.

    To find the volume of a box, multiply the length, width, and height (depth is similar to height - but from the top instead of the bottom)

    convert depth to the same units of measure as the other measurements: 54-inches = 4.5-feet

    18-ft X 40-ft X 4.5-ft = 3240-ft3

    3240-ft3 x  7.48-gal/ft3=24236.88

    Since your pool has rounded corners and the bottom isn't perfectly flat, I would say it is pretty close to 24,000 gallons.
    If you pay $0.01/gallon (one penny for every gallon), it will cost $240 to fill the pool.
