The question wants us to find 3 times the volume of the pool.
This is because we are told that the pool must be filled 3 times during the summer and asked how many cubic feet of water is required to fill the pool all summer.
Step 1: Find the volume of the pool.
Volume is calculated by multiplying length by width by height.
Pool length = 5 ft.
Pool width = 4 ft.
Pool height = 2 ft.
Pool volume = 5 • 4 • 2
5 • 4 • 2 = 40
The volume of the pool is 40 cubic feet.
Step 2: Find 3 times the volume of the pool.
Volume = 40 ft.^3
3 times volume = 3 • 40 ft.^3
3 • 40 ft.^3 = 120 ft.^3
3 times the volume of the pool is 120 cubic feet.
Answer:
The pool requires 120 cubic feet of water in order to be filled enough over the course of the summer.
Hope this helps!
The basic ratio of 25:40 would be 5:8.
Since 25:40 is equivalent to the fraction 25/40, you would simplify.
25 (divided by) 5 = 5
40 (divided by) 5 = 8
So, the answer is 5:8.
The answer is 3/9 or 1/3 in its simplest form
