The formula to find volume is volume = length x width x height

So to find the volume of a recycling bin, multiply 3/4 x 1 x 1 1/2 ft

Anything x 1 = itself, so 3/4 x 1 = 3/4

Before multiplying 3/4 and 1 1/2 to make it easier I’m going to make 1 1/2 into an improper fraction instead of a mixed number.
To do this I multiply the outside number (1) by the denominator (2), and then add that number to the numerator (1)

1x2 = 2
2+1 = 3
1 1/2 = 3/2

Now I can multiply 3/4 and 3/2

Multiply the numerators: 3 x 3 = 9
Multiply the denominators: 4 x 2 = 8

3/4 x 3/2 = 9/8
9/8 is equivalent to 1 1/8, depending on if your teacher likes your answer to be a mixed number or not.

So, the volume of the recycling bin is 9/8 ft^3.

\text{Answer: }\text{Distance traveled by steamboat}=20\text{ knots}\\\text{Distance traveled by yacht }=20+20=40\text{ knots}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Time taken by steamboat makes the trip=5 hours

Time taken by yacht makes the trip =2.5 hours

Since we have also given that

the yacht is 20 knots faster than the steamboat,

So let the speed of steamboat be x

Let the speed of yacht be x+20

Now,  we have given that both boats will travel the same distance ,

So,

\text{Distance traveled by steamboat}=\text{ Distance traveled by yacht}\\\\x\times 5=(x+20)\times 2.5\\\\5x=2.5x+50\\\\5x-2.5x=50\\\\2.5x=50\\\\x=\frac{50}{2.5}\\\\x=20\text{ knots}

Hence,

\text{Distance traveled by steamboat}=20\text{ knots}\\\text{Distance traveled by yacht }=20+20=40\text{ knots}
