To find the volume of the fish tank, we will multiply the length, width, and height together.
First, convert all the dimensions to fractions or decimals for easier calculation:
Length = 36 1/2 in. = 73/2 in.
Width = 12 3/4 in. = 51/4 in.
Height = 18 1/2 in. = 37/2 in.
Now, multiply the dimensions together:
Volume = (73/2)*(51/4)*(37/2)
Volume = (73*51*37)/(2*4*2)
Volume = 140,139/8
Volume = 17,517.375
Therefore, the volume of the fish tank is 17,517.375 cubic inches.
Applying the formula, what is the volume of a fish tank with the following dimensions: the length is
36 1/2 in., the width is 12 3/4 in., and the height is 18 1/2 in.?(1 point)
