Jared and Alyssa made a stack of hay bales. Each bale has a volume of 1 m3. They made 3 layers with 6 bales in each layer. A) What is the volume of the stack? _______ b) How many rows of bales could be in each layer? _______ c) How many bales could be in each row? _______

Answer 1

Answer:

1) 18 m^3

2) 2 rows per layer.

3) 3 bales per row.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of bale = 1 m^3

Layer has 3 layers tall ams 6 layers.

Total volume = 1 x 3 x 6 = 18 m^3

The most stable arrangement will be to have 2 rows of 3 bales per layer.

There could be 3 bales per row
