Penny needs 30 cubic ft of sand to fill a sandbox. She plans to buy 10 bags of sand for her sandbox. Each bag contains 2.9 cubic
feet of sand. Is this a reasonable plan? A. Yes, it is reasonable because each bag covers around 3 cubic feet. So in order to cover 30 cubic feet she would need 10 bags to be sure she has enough and end up with a little extra. B. No, it is not reasonable because each bag covers around 3 cubic feet. So in order to cover 30 cubic feet, she would need at least 30 bags to be sure she has enough sand. C. No, it is not reasonable because each bag covers a bit less than 3 cubic feet. So in order to cover 30 cubic feet, she would need to buy 11 bags to be sure she has enough sand
Because: 2.9 multiplied by 10 bags equals 29cubic ft and she needs 30 cubic ft. So she would need to buy 11 bags to make sure she has enough sand for the whole thing. 11 x 2.9 = 31.9 which ensures she has enough for the whole thing including extra in case. So you answer would be Answer C.
The solution is 25% acid, which means 2.5 liters acid (10 x .25). <span>you need that 2.5 liters to be 10%, or 1/10th the total. </span> <span>the total would have to be 25 liters (2.5 x 10) so when you add to 10 to get 25 you get </span><span>15 liters. Hope I helped!</span>
