Question

I have a math assignment and i am meant to do i backyard design and i have to fit in a fishpond which has an outside diameter of 2.5 and a water depth of 40cm. how should i measure it out into the backyard design?

Answer 1

What do you mean by "measure it out"?

What are the units of the 2.5 diameter? Meters?

For the volume of soil you need to remove, multiply the pool area by the depth. Use meters, m^2 and m^3.

You are the designer. You decide where to put the pool and landscape around it.

Answer 2

What i am asking is how would i measure out 2.5cm diameter onto grid paper which my backyard design is on?

Answer 3

Joshua,

If you need more help, continue using the same post to give continuity for anyone or anyone else giving you help.
Starting a new post will slow down help for everyone else.

I assume you already have a plan of the backyard on grid paper which you have not manage to post. Find out the scale used in the plan (1 cm = 1m , i.e. 1:100 etc.)

If you don't already have one, you will need to draw it using an appropriate scale.

Find a place in the plan where you can fit in a circle representing the pool, using the appropriate scale. Example, if the scale was 1:100, then a diameter of 2.5m would become a diameter of 2.5 cm on the plan.

To get more help, you'll have to describe more of where help is needed.
