Answer:
1356cm3
Step-by-step explanation:
when the stone is dropped in to the water the new height is 17.4cm(14+3.4)
find the volume when the height is 14cm and when the height is 17.4cm
24*14*17.4=4716
24*14*14=3360
then subtract the two volumes
4716-3360=1356cm3
Answer:
816 cm^3
Step-by-step explanation:
First you want to find the volume of the container with the stone, and then without the stone.
The formula for finding the volume of a rectangular container is V= l x w x h
We substitue in:
With stone:
V= 24cm x 10 cm x (14+3.4 cm)
V= 4,176 cm^3
Without stone:
V= 24 cm x 10 cm x 14 cm
V= 3,360 cm^3
Then, you want to subtract the two volumes to get the stone by itself.
4,176 - 3,360= 816 cm^3
Hope this helps!
PS- I think the answer above me got their numbers mixed up, but they had the right idea.
