For this case, the first thing to do is to model the rectangular sandbox as a rectangular prism.

The volume of the prism is given by:

V = w * l * h

Where,

  • <em>w: width </em>
  • <em>l: length </em>
  • <em>h: height </em>

Therefore, replacing values we have:

V = 6 * 5 * 1.2\\V = 36 ft ^ 3

We observed that:

36 ft ^ 3> 20 ft ^ 3

Therefore, the sandbox is not completely filled.

Answer:

the sandbox will hold 36 ft ^ 3 of sand

Jodi purchase is not enough sand to fill the sandbox to the top.

36 ft ^ 3> 20 ft ^ 3
