It depends on the type of fuel used, and the engines used in each stage
For example, Ion engines use Xenon gas, while conventional rockets tend to use kerosene, or a mixture of liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.
Certain boosters also use solid fuel, but those are mainly for support
So how much fuel is needed?
In this instance
It depends on the kind of fuel. What mission do you want to analyze?
The engine efficiencies matter as well
First moon landing
There's a reason people say "this isn't rocket science"
It's complex stuff
And even the tiniest change can throw off everything. Case in point, the Challenger Shuttle disaster. The entire shuttle blew up because a singular rubber ring cracked, because it was slightly too cold that morning.
@Dusty Garlic Wtf?

Shoot, what did he say, I didn’t get to see it?
He claimed to be s flat earther
Oh, that’s it? Eh
Then posts shit like that
He’s a troll
Oh, nvm, lol
In total, for the Saturn V rocket
That’s not what I asked gohan
I assume those are either/or, Gohan?
"So how much fuel is needed?"
No, that's total
Uses all three? Huh
The first stage used kerosene, second and third use Liquid Hydrogen
Ah, gotcha
All three need liquid oxygen as an oxidizer
@The Gwench that's exactly what you asked. You asked how much fuel. That's the answer.
I actually went full stupid and didn’t realize the second and third said oxygen and hydrogen.
