Question

Question 1 Unsaved Simpson has a rectangular fish aquarium that measures 31 inches long, 13 inches wide and is 28 inches deep. What is the maximum amount of water the aquarium can hold? Show and explain your work for full credit.

Answer 1

1. To solve this problem, yous must use the following formula for calculate the volume of the rectangular fish aquarium:

 V=LxWxH

 "V" is the volume of the rectangular fish aquarium.
 "L" is the length of the rectangular fish aquarium (L=31 in).
 "W" is the width of the rectangular fish aquarium (W=13 in).
 "H" is the heigth of the rectangular fish aquarium (H=28 in).

 2. When you substitute these values into the formula for calculate the volume of the rectangular fish aquarium (V=LxWxH), you obtain:

 V=LxWxH
 V=(31 in)(13 in)(28 in)
 V=11,284 in³

 What is the maximum amount of water the aquarium can hold?

 The answer is: 11,284 in³
