To calculate the volume of a rectangular tank, you can use the formula:
\[
\text{Volume} = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height}
\]
In this case:
- Length (l) = 3 ft
- Width (w) = 1.5 ft
- Height (h) = 2 ft
Now, substituting the values into the formula:
\[
\text{Volume} = 3 \, \text{ft} \times 1.5 \, \text{ft} \times 2 \, \text{ft}
\]
Calculating it step by step:
1. Multiply the length by the width:
\[
3 \times 1.5 = 4.5 \, \text{ft}^2
\]
2. Now multiply that result by the height:
\[
4.5 \times 2 = 9 \, \text{ft}^3
\]
So, the volume of the fish tank is **9 ft³**.
\[
\text{Volume} = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height}
\]
In this case:
- Length (l) = 3 ft
- Width (w) = 1.5 ft
- Height (h) = 2 ft
Now, substituting the values into the formula:
\[
\text{Volume} = 3 \, \text{ft} \times 1.5 \, \text{ft} \times 2 \, \text{ft}
\]
Calculating it step by step:
1. Multiply the length by the width:
\[
3 \times 1.5 = 4.5 \, \text{ft}^2
\]
2. Now multiply that result by the height:
\[
4.5 \times 2 = 9 \, \text{ft}^3
\]
So, the volume of the fish tank is **9 ft³**.
