Answer:

(D)80 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume volume of the sandbox is = L × W × H

Where L = Length, W= width, H= Height.

A sandbox has the same shape as a cuboid.

A cuboid is a solid shape with rectangular base and sides. It has six rectangular faces if all sides are closed.

From the question,

LWH = 10ft³ ........................ (1).

If a similar sandbox twice as long, twice as wide and twice as high.

∴ L₍n₎= 2L, W₍n) =2W, H₍n₎ = 2H

Where L₍n₎, W₍n), H₍n₎ is the new Length,  new Width and  new Height of the similar sandbox.

∴L₍n₎ ×W₍n)× H₍n₎  = 2L × 2W × 2H

   and Volume of the new sandbox = L₍n₎ ×W₍n)× H₍n₎

 ⇒Volume of the new sandbox = 2 × 2 ×2 ×L×W×H

     Volume of the new sandbox = 8 × LWH....................(2)

    In equation(1) LWH = 10ft³.

     Substituting the value in equation(2)

    ∴Volume of the new(similar) sandbox= 8 × 10

       =80ft³.

Therefore the capacity of the second sandbox in cubic feet is 80.

The answer is option (D).

First we have to find the decimal equivalent by dividing.
5 / 8 = 0.625

It can't be an Integer because decimals can't be intergers, so that's ruled out

It can't be repeating as it does end, so that's also ruled out

Since the decimal does end it can't be non-terminating, non-repeating

So the answer is Terminating Decimal by process of elimination
