Calculating Pool Volume Concepts

Lauren Groom, an instructor at Space Coast Pool School, teaches how to calculate the volume and gallons of a rectangular constant slope pool. The lesson covers the formula: area times average depth times 7.5, where area is length times width. The average depth is the sum of the deep and shallow ends divided by two. The video includes a problem-solving example with a pool of specific dimensions, converting units, and calculating the final volume in gallons.
