A) What's the volume of this fish tank? Show all work and express your answer as a mixed number in its most simplified form!
By definition we have that the volume of a rectangular prism is given by:
V = (w) * (l) * (h)
Where,
w: width
l: long
h: height
We then have to replace the values:
V = (7) * (5.5) * (2.5)
V = 96.25 in ^ 3
Equivalently:
V = 96 1/4 in ^ 3
B) Could this fish tank hold 100 in³ of water? Answer yes or no, then explain why in one or more sentences.
No, this fish tank could not hold 100 in³ of water.
This is because the prism volume (part A) is less than 100 in ^ 3.
In other words;
96 1/4 in ^ 3 <100 in ^ 3
We know that 1 cube equals 1/3. If you count the rectangular prism, you learn that there are 30 cubes in total that make up the rectangular prism. So what I did was 1/3 times 30. You could also divided 1 by 3, and get 0.3333333333, which is equal to 1/3 (1/3 = 0.3333333333) So, you should come out with ten. Thus your answer would be D, 10ft cubed.
