Why don't you ask your client has much gas they pump each day or anticipate pumping then you can size your tanks; perhaps assume there's a delivery every three days. Is it just to pump gas or will there be service bays for repairs? You need to ask your client about how they envision this facility being used.
Gomer Pyle and Goober Pyle are retired so they're not available as potential filling station employees.

I can't quite believe that you are being asked to work out whether your filling station should have 20 filling pumps or 2 without the client giving you some sort of info about number of vehicles, types of vehicles, people, is this the only one there etc.
Then you can try and work out peak numbers of cars filling at the same time, volume of your tanks, area of the facility and so on.
what are you designing - the building or the whole facility?
My motto: Learn something new every day
Also: There's usually a good reason why everyone does it that way

You should find a few Whole Building Design Guideline (WBDG) documents at the top of the list. These documents are generally a compilation of military guidelines which would be another good place to look. Places like the army corps of engineers website for technical manuals and such.
