volumetank= PIr^2 h= PI(4)^2 * 8

volume carton= 1/2*1/2*1= 1/4 cubic ft

number full= volume tank/volume carton

First calculate the volume of the carton. Then calculate the volume of the tank on the truck. Be careful. The dimensions of the tank on the truck are in feet while the dimensions of the cartons are in inches.
