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.

A nurse sees 24 patients in 5 hours. At this rate, approximately how many patients will the nurse be able to see in a 8-hour per

Vikki [24]

Hi!

We will solve this using proportions, like this:

24 patients in 5 hours

x patients in 8 hours

_________________

x = (24*8)/5

x = 192/5

x = 38,4

The nurse will be able to see 38,4 patients in a 8-hour period, but because it's patients we are talking about, living things which can't be represented in decimal form, the nurse will be able to see approximately 38 patients in a 8-hour period.

Hope this helps!
