Question

Problem: How many cubic yards of concrete must be ordered to pour the section

Answer 1

Answer:

0.9 yd³

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given:

Length = 18 ft

Width = 1.5 ft

Height = 1 ft

What to find/do:

First, convert the measurement from feet to yards. (3 ft = 1 yard)

Length = 18 ft = 6 yd

Width = 1.5 ft = 0.5 yd

Height = 1 ft = 0.3 yd

Next, find the volume of the shape given. The volume would give us the amount of concrete to use in yards.

Formula for volume = L*W*H

Plug in the values into the formula

V = 6*0.5*0.3 = 0.9 yd³

0.9 cubic yard of concrete must be ordered to pour on the given section.
