How many gallons would this be?

not that simple. it's a bow front. If you had been here a few weeks ago, we were debating hot to find the cubic feet
Simple. The tank is 72 gallons, 16632^3. Just take 72 and multiply by 231.
The non-bow front part of the tank is 12x48x18, right? Thats 44 gallons. That means the bow part is 28 gallons. The length of it is 48" and the height is 18" that means the bow is 7.45" deep.
Thats 10368 for the non bow part, and another 6436 for the bow.
Comes out to ~16800.

Its not that easy... you have to remember that it is normally over-marketed. There are other variables also... though if everything was perfect and exact your method would work. Find me those measurements and i can find you your near-exact in^3.
I screwed up my calculations somewhere cuz i am getting... 10054 cubic inches... which is wrong.
7,560 cu. in. * (1 cu. ft. / 1728 cu. in) * (7.48 gal / 1 cu. ft.) = 32.7 gallons
That's just going off of the volume given. As for the actual dimensions of the tank... I have no idea.

As for the 72... you just have to work the equation the other way. You will have roughly 16,633 cu. in. in a 72 bow.
