Answer 1

To find the number of fish in the tank, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Number of fish} = \text{Volume of tank} \times \text{Density of fish} \]

Given:

• Volume of the tank = 30 cubic feet
• Density of fish = 0.3 fish per cubic foot

Now, plug in the values:

\[ \text{Number of fish} = 30 , \text{cubic feet} \times 0.3 , \text{fish/cubic foot} \]

Calculating this:

\[ \text{Number of fish} = 30 \times 0.3 = 9 , \text{fish} \]

Therefore, the number of fish in the tank is 9.
