Question

A rectangular pool is 12 ft wide, 20 ft long and 5 ft

deep. If it is 4/5 full, how much water does it contain?

Answer 1

Multiply the 3 dimensions to find the volume, then find 4/5 of the volume by multiplying 4/5 by the volume.

12x5=60

60x20=1,200

I'm gunna convert the 4/5 to decimal to make it easier.

1,200x0.8=960

So there is a total liquid volume of 960(I'm assuming it's ounces).
