A normal bath-tub is about 1.5m long by 0.6m wide by 0.3m deep.

1.5 x 0.6 x 0.3 = 0.27m³ = 270 litres (approx).

You might want to allow for displacement, say 50-70 litres. And I've never seen a bath that was box shaped, so I think 270 lires is way over. Looking at manufacturers web sites, I would estimate 70-150 litres for most baths.

Bath tubs vary in size. I estimate 20 to 30 gallons, so around 100 liters on the average.
