    180 gallons

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Each hour, 8 gallons were lost. Thus, in 6 hours,

    6 * 8 = 48 gallons were lost

    After 6 hours, 132 gallons remained, so before this 6 hours, there were more 48 gallons in it. Thus,

    Original amount was 132 + 48 = 180 gallons

    Originally, 180 gallons of water was in the pool
