How big is a 55 gallon drum? About the size of a bathtub? Asked Google, and it told me:
Many drums have a common nominal volume of 208 litres (55 US gal; 46 imp gal) and nominally measure just under 880 millimetres (35 in) tall with a diameter just under 610 millimetres (24 in) and differ by holding about thirteen gallons more than a barrel of crude oil.
178 gallons / 55 gallons/drum ~= 3.24 drums
The capacity of an average, US, standard run-of-the-mill built in bathtub filled up to the very bottom of the overflow, which is as full as you can get it is approx. 42 gallons
Let me clarify. All the standard size American Standard tubs are 42 gallons. I also went to the Kohler site and they are the same.
178 gallons / 42 gallons/bathtub ~= 4.24 bathtubs
