Answer:

$\large\boxed{32\ is\ 90\%\ of\ 35\dfrac{5}{9}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>METHOD 1:</h3>

$\begin{array}{ccc}32&-&90\%\\\\x&-&100\%\end{array}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\\\90x=3200\qquad\text{divide both sides by 90}\\\\x=\dfrac{3200}{90}\\\\x=\dfrac{320}{9}\\\\x=35\dfrac{5}{9}$

<h3>METHOD 2:</h3>

$\begin{array}{cccc}32&-&90\%&\text{divide both sides by 9}\\\\\dfrac{32}{9}&-&10\%\end{array}\\\\\\90\%+10\%=100\%\to32+\dfrac{32}{9}=32+3\dfrac{5}{9}=35\dfrac{5}{9}$

Tony's fish tank is a right rectangular prism 50 \,\text{cm}50cm50, space, c, m long by 25\, \text{cm}25cm25, space, c, m wide.

Svetlanka [38]

The volume of the prism is calculated by multiplying the length, L, width,W, and depth or height, H.
V = L x W x H
Fish tank:
V = 50 cm x 25 cm x 25 cm
= 31250 cm³
Depth of the water in tank (with castle - without castle)
d = 57.5 cm - 48 cm = 9.5 cm
Volume of the caste:
V = 9.5 cm x 50 cm x 25 cm = 11875 cm³
