Answer:

576

Explanation:

The MAXIMUM amount of fish per tank is detailed as 18, as there cannot be any more than it per tank.

We have 32 fish tanks in total, and if we wish to find the maximum fish capacity, simply multiply 32 by 18, and we will get our answer to be 576 fish!

Answer:

Greatest possible number of fish = 576 fish.

Explanation:

If there cannot be no more than 18 fish in each tank, then this means that the maximum amount of fish (or greatest amount of fish) is 18 PER tank (since it says "each").

With this knowledge, we can multiply 18 by 32 and we get 576 as our answer.

We are asked for the greatest possible number of fish, so what we have done here is used the information provided (with the maximum for each tank being 18 fish) and multiplied it by 32 to get 576 fish.
