The first thing you must do is to calculate the weight of the gravel (w) that the truck holds (7.5 yards³). So, you have:
If the weight of 1 yard³ is 1.48 tons, then the weight of 7.5 yards³ is:
w=7.5x1.48 tons
w=11.1 tons
The problem says that the gravel will be placed in containers that each hold 3.7 tons of gravel,so, If they need 1 cotainer to place 3.7 tons, how many containers they need to place 11.1 tons?
1 container-------3.7 tons of gravel
x-------11.1 tons of gravel
x=(11.1x1)/3.7
x=11.1/3.7
x=3 containers
H<span>ow many containers of this size are needed to hold all the gravel from one truck?

The answer is: 3 containers.
If you have a fraction, take one number and put a different number on top or underneath, for example if you have 2 cats and 3 dogs, the ratio from cats to dogs would be 2:3 but if you did 2 cats to the total number of animals, you would add 2 and 3 and get 5, so the ratio would be 2:5.
3/5+1/2=___
To add them together, convert both fractions so they have the same denominator.
3/5=6/10 and 1/2=5/10
6/10+5/10=11/10, or 1 1/10
1/2+3/8=___
Same for this one- convert both fractions so they have the same denominator.
1/2=4/8 and 3/8 stays the same
4/8+3/8=7/8
1/2+2/5
And again, convert both fractions so they have the same denominator.
1/2=5/10 and 2/5= 4/10
5/10+4/10=9/10
Hope this helps :-)
So to find out the answer, you need to find out the dimensions of each cube. So for the 1331, it's 11 x 11 x 11. So you know that would be 11 meters high. Now the next cube. Then there's another 1331, so that would be another 11 meters high. Then 729, also 9 x 9 x 9, so that's going to be 9 meters high. Then add all the cube square roots. 11 + 11 + 9 = 31. So the height of the stacked boxes will be 31 meters.
