A child's sandbox is 5 feet wide, 4 feet long, and 3 feet deep. Grace fills the sandbox so that the sand is 2 ½ feet deep. What

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

the volume of sand is $50 ft^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, rectangular prism.

Given data

$Length l= 4 ft Width w= 5ft\\Height h = 3ft$

if the sandbox is filled with sand of $2\frac{1}{2 } ft$ deep the volume of the sand in the box will be calculated based on the the depth of the sand

converting the depth of sand from mixed fraction to proper fraction we have $2\frac{1}{2} = \frac{5}{2}$

the expression for the volume of a rectangular prism is

$volume of sand = length * width* height$

substituting our data into the expression we have

$volume of sand= 5*4 * \frac{5}{2} \\volume of sand = \frac{100}{2} \\volume of sand = 50 ft^{3}$

what do i write for this " Write a problem that requires adding 1 to the quotient when interpreting the remainder."

Mariana [72]

You should write a ( real world situation ) question that can only have whole numbers as a solution because you would divide and then you can not have a fraction left over so instead you add one. For instance there are 132 students going on a field trip. 20 students can fit on each bus. how many buses are needed? 7 because when you divide 132 by 20 you get 6 remainder 12. You can not just make 12 students walk to the location so you would add an extra bus.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4/7 x + 70 cm^3 = 3/4 x Subtract 4/7 x from both sides

3/4 x - 4/7 x = 70 cm^3 The lowest common denominator is 28

$\frac{3*7*x}{4*7} - \frac{4*4x}{4*7} = 70 cc\\\frac{21*x}{28} - \frac{16*x}{28} = 70 cc\\\frac{5x}{28}= 70cc\\$
