Usually a pot hold water in gallons if the pot is 'x' inches tall and 'y' inches in diameter, then you can use (Volume of cylinder= pi*r^2*h ) formula. Also (231 cu.in = 1 gallon).

For Example:
Question: 
How much water could a pot hold in gallons if the pot is 10 inches tall and 12 inches in diameter ?

Answer:
Volume of cylinder= pi*r^2*h
r=radius=6
h= height=10

Volume = pi*6^2*10
volume = 1131 in^3
231 cu.in = 1 gallon
1131/231=4.9 gallons
