How many gallons of water are needed to raise a 16x32 pool 1 inch?

Roughly 266.19 gallons. One cubic foot will hold 6.239 gallons of water (Imperial) so to get your answer you convert all measurements into inches

16' = 192" and 32' = 384" now multiply width by length 192 x 384 = 73728

now multiply this by the height and it will give you volume in cubic inches so 73728 x 1 = 73728,

now you have to convert this to cubic feet by dividing this number by 1728
(which is 12 x 12 x 12) and then multiplying your answer by 6.239 which will give you you actual gallons needed. Hope it helps
