Answer:
a) The maximum amount of water the aquarium can hold is 1728 in³.
b) The cover has to be 624 in² big.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The maximum volume of water that the aquarium can have is the same as the volume of the aquarium:
V=L×W×H=18 in × 8 in × 12 in= 1728 in³
b) The protective covering is used on the four walls of the aquarium. We have to find the areas of the four walls:
One of them is given by the multiplication of the width and the height:
A₁= W×H= 8 in × 12 in=96 in²
The other area is given by the multiplication of the length and the height:
A₂= L×H= 18 in × 12 in= 216 in²
As the fish aquarium is rectangular the area of the walls is given by:
=2×96 in²+2×216 in²=624 in²
We have to determine the conversion factor used to convert inches to yards. Yard and inch are US and British customary length units. We know that 1 yard = 3 feet = 36 inches. So we just have to divide 1 by 36. 1 : 36 = 0.027777.... ( more accurate with more decimal digits ). For example: 54 yards = 54 * 0.0277777 = 1.4999958 ( approx. 1.5 ).
