Question

Samantha has a rectangular shaped fish tank in her room. The tank has a height of 2.6 ft, a width of 2.1 ft, and a length of 3.9 ft. What is the BEST approximation of the amount of water her fish tank can hold?

Answer 1

Answer: the BEST approximation of the amount of water her fish tank can hold is 21ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of Samantha's fish tank is rectangular. The volume of the rectangular fish tank would be expressed as LWH

Where

L represents length of the tank

W represents the width of the tank.

H represents the height of the tank.

The tank has a height of 2.6 ft, a width of 2.1 ft, and a length of 3.9 ft.

This means that the volume of the fish tank would be

Volume = 2.6 × 2.1 × 3.9

= 21.294 ft^3
