Question

Your neighbor also has a swimming pool of the same shape as yours, but it is 75% the depth. Your pool is 1015 cubic feet. What is the volume of the neighbor’s pool? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. a0 cubic feet

Answer 1

Answer:

761 cubic feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Your neighbor also has a swimming pool of the same shape as yours, but it is 75% the depth.

Then, if my swimming pool's depth is H, then my neighbor's pool will have depth $\frac{75 \times H}{100} = 0.75 H$.  

So, if my swimming pool has dimensions L ft. by W ft. by H ft., then my neighbor's pool will have dimensions L ft by W ft. by 0.75H ft.

Now, given that the volume of my pool is 1015 cubic ft.

So, LWH = 1015 ......... (1)

Now, my neighbor's pool has volume V = 0.75LWH = 0.75(1015) = 761.25 cubic ft ≈ 761 cubic ft. {Round to the nearest whole number} (Answer)

{From equation (1)}
