I have a small circular swimming pool in my backyard for my grandkids. Last summer when I set it up I bought chlorine to put into it. The directions on the bottle said to put in 16 fluid ounces of chlorine per 10,000 gallons of water. Of course, our pool holds a lot less water than 10,000 gallons, so I needed to figure out the correct amount of chlorine to put into it. The pool is 8 feet in diameter, and the height of the water was 36 inches. I know that the volume of a cylinder is V = (pi)(r^2)h , where r is the radius of the cylinder, and h is the height. I Googled to find that there are 231 cubic inches in a gallon of water. How many fluid ounces of chlorine did I need to put into the pool? (Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a fluid ounce).
