Answer:
Tank B
Explanation:
A pet store has three fish tanks, each holding a different volume of water and a different number of fish.
a) Tank A has 5 fishes with a volume of 40 liters.
Volume per fish = 40 liters/5 fishes
= 8 liters/fish
b) Tank B has 12 fishes with a volume of 100 liters.
Volume per fish = 100 liters/12 fishes
= 8.33 liters/ fish
c) Tank C has 23 fishes with a volume of 180,000 milliliters.
Convert 180,000 milliliters to liters
1 milliliter = 0.001 liter
180,000 milliliters = x
x = 180,000ml × 0.001 l
x = 180 liters
Volume per fish = 180 liters/23 fishes
= 7.8260869565 volume per fish
Approximately = 7.83 liters/fish
Which tank has the greatest volume per fish?
The tank that had the greatest volume per fish is Tank B at 8.33 liters/ fish
