These formula's may help, you need 2 knowns to get the 3rd.
Quantity= Area x(multiply) Volume
Volume= Quantity % Area
Area= Volume % Quantity
Also, 1ft. of water(head) is equal to .433 pounds. You can then use another equation to get cubic feet.
Pounds of water x 0.0166032= cubic feet
Hope this helps
