Question

A bathtub in the shape of a rectangular prism is 5 feet long 3 1/2 feet wide and 4 1/4 feet high. How much water could th tub hold

Answer 1

The volume would be 74.375 To find this you multiply 5 by 3 1/2 by 4 1/4

Answer 2

First of all, to find how much water can the tub hold like finding the volume of the tube, and the tube is a rectangular prism, so we have the volume of it equal length × width × height. So we just need to put the information in here which V= 5×3 1/2×4 1/4=74.375 cubic feet. As a result, the tube could hold 74.375 cubic feet water.
