Question

Zaire is making sand art her mom. She bought a rectangular vase that is 2.5 inches long, 3 inches wide, and 6 inches tall. Colored sand is sold for $0.50 per square inch. How much will she spend on sand to fill the jar

Answer 1

Answer:

$22.50

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the unit of the sand sold is actually in cubic inches and not square inches.

V = L*B*H

V = 2.5 * 3 * 6

V = 45 in³

If 1 in³ = $0.50

    45 = x

x = 45 * $0.50

x = $22.50
