Answer 1

Answer:

The tanks by volume per fish from least to greatest:

Tank C, Tank A, Tank B

Step-by-step explanation:

A pet store has three fish tanks, each holding a different volume of water and a different number of fish.

Order the tanks by volume per fish from least to greatest.

Tank A holds 40 L and 5 fish.

= 40L/5 fishes

= 8 volume per fish

Tank B holds 100 L and 12 fish

= 100L/12 fishes

= 8.3333333333 volume per fish

Tank C holds 180 L and 23 fish.

= 180L /23 fish

= 7.8260869565 volume per fish

The tanks by volume per fish from least to greatest

Tank C, Tank A, Tank B
