Question

A box of Jell-O costs $0.50, and makes 2 cups. How much would it cost to fill a swimming pool 4 feet deep, 8 feet wide, and 12 feet long with Jell-O? (1 cubic foot is about 7.5 gallons)

Answer 1

Answer:

$11,520

Step-by-step explanation:

4 * 8 * 12 = 384 cu ft.

384 * 7.5 = 2880 gallons

There are 16 cups in a gallon

2880 * 16 = 46,080 cups

46,080/2 * .50 = $11,520
