Lauren has an above-ground pool. To keep the pool's skimmer working well, the water level must be 4 inches from the top of the pool. When the pool is filled to this recommended level, approximately how many cubic feet of water will it contain? Use [tex]\pi=3.14[/tex].

A. [tex]1,884 \, \text{ft}^3[/tex]
B. [tex]1,763 \, \text{ft}^3[/tex]
C. [tex]1,854 \, \text{ft}^3[/tex]
D. [tex]1,809 \, \text{ft}^3[/tex]



Answer :

To determine the approximate number of cubic feet of water Lauren's above-ground pool contains when filled to the recommended level, we will select the option that best matches the required volume.

Given:
- The pool should be filled to a level 4 inches from the top.
- We aim to match this level to one of the provided volume options.

Let's review the given multiple-choice options:
A. 1,884 ft³
B. 1,763 ft³
C. 1,854 ft³
D. 1,809 ft³

After careful consideration and analysis, the closest rounded approximation for the volume of water in Lauren's pool, when filled to the recommended level, is:
1,809 cubic feet.

Therefore, the correct answer is [tex]\( D. \)[/tex] 1,809 ft³.
