Question

27.(08.04 MC)The volume of a fish tank is 50 cubic feet. If the density is 0.5fish/feet cubed, how many fish are in the tank?

Answer 1

25 fish

Explanation:

We have been given that the volume of a fish tank is 50 ft^3 and the density is 0.5 fish/ft^3. To find the number of fish in the tank, we need to multiply the volume of the tank by the density. Just like this:

`\begin{gathered} n=50ft^3\cdot0.5(fish)/(ft^3) \\ n=25\text{ fish} \end{gathered}`

Therefore, there are 25 fish in the tank.
