GRAY and WASTE HOLDING TANKS??
My RV is equipped with a 30gal waste holding tank and a 40 gallon Gray holding tank. Silly question but when filling the holding tanks does it separate the water? Will it hold 70 gallons combined? ...

Another way to figure out how many gallons is in a tank is to measure the tank (if you can get to it, that is) using foot measurements. Multiply all three sides (H X W X L). That will give you the cubic feet of the tank. Then multiply by 7.48 and that will give you a close approximation of the number of gallons that a particular tank will hold.
ei. you have a tank that measures 4'L by 1.5'H by 1.5'W. 4 X 1.5 X 1.5 = 9 cubic feet. 9 X 7.48 (gallons per cubic foot) = 67.32. So that tank holds about 67 or so gallons.
I know, not all tanks are perfectly straight on the edges, but then, one isn't looking for an exact figure. The measurements will give you a close approximation of the number of gallons a tank will hold.
