Answer:
a) The volume of the dunking booth = 98 feet³
b) They will need 84 feet³ of water to fill 6/7 of dunking booth
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets talk about the rectangular prism
- It has 6 rectangular faces each two opposite faces are congruent
- It has three dimensions Length, Width and Height
- Its volume = Length × Width × height
* In our problem the dunking booth is a rectangular prism
with dimensions:
- Width = 3.5 ft
- Length = 3.5 ft
- Height = 8 ft
∴ Its volume = 3.5 × 3.5 × 8 = 98 feet³
a) The volume of the dunking booth = 98 feet³
* They want to fill 6/7 of the dunking booth with water
∴ The volume of the water will be 6/7 from the volume
of the dunking booth
∵ The volume of the dunking booth = 98 feet³
∴ The volume of the water = 6/7 × 98 = 84 feet³
b) * They will need 84 feet³ of water
