Answer:
The ounces of oil needed is 5 ounces of oil
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing to do here is to calculate the volume of the lemon-scented candle given.
Looking at shape the volume can be calculated using the formula L * B * H
where L(length) = 10cm , B(breadth) = 8cm and Height(h) = 25cm
The volume V is thus = 10 * 8 * 25 = 2,000 cm^3
The ounces of oil needed for the candle to have 0.0025 ounces of oil per cm^3 of wax will be = The volume of the lemon-scented candle * 0.0025 ounces of oil per cm^3 of wax
That will be = 0.0025 * 2,000 = 5 ounces
