Answer: 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the consecutive odd numbers be represented by x and x+2. Therefore,

x × (x+2) = 483

x² + 2x = 483

x² + 2x - 483 = 0

x² + 23x - 21x - 483 = 0

x(x + 23) - 21(x + 23) = 0

(x - 21) = 0

x = 0 + 21

x = 21

The smaller integer is 21

The larger integer is 21 + 2 = 23.

Too much sand.

Volume is the amount of space something takes up. The formula for volume is v=length x width x height.

The volume of the sandbox is 36 ft^3, because 5x6x1.2 = 36. This means the box takes up 36 cubic feet of space.

If the customer bought 40 cubic feet of sand, than they bought to much because 40 > 36. The amount of sand she got is greater than the volume of the box, so it won’t all fit.
