The volume of a fish tank is 60 cubic feet. If the density is 0.3 fish over feet cubed, how many fish are in the tank? 200 9 100

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

There are 18 fish in the fish tank.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a fish tank is 60 cubic feet: V = 60 ft³.

The density is 0.3 fish over feet cubed. d = 0.3 fish/ft³

We can find the number of fish using proportions. The required conversion factor is 0.3 fish/ft³. The number of fish is:

60 ft³ × (0.3 fish/ft³) = 18 fish

There are 18 fish in the fish tank.
