Question

A water tank is built in the form of a right rectangular prism, with dimensions that measure 10.9 ft by 6.7 ft by 6.1 ft. How many cubic feet of water would it hold when it is full? Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answer 1

Explanation:

To calculate the volume of a right rectangular prism, you need to multiply its length, width, and height. Using the given dimensions of the water tank, we can calculate its volume as follows:

Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 10.9 ft x 6.7 ft x 6.1 ft
Volume = 449.867 ft³ (rounded to three decimal places)

Therefore, the water tank would hold approximately 449.9 cubic feet of water when it is full.
