Question

Josephine has a glass pitcher in the shape of a rectangular prism. The pitcher dimensions are 5 inches long, 5 inches wide and 7 inches high. She fills 3 inches of the pitcher with sugar. How many cubic inches are left in her pitcher for lemonade?​

Answer 1

100 cubic inches

Explanation:

If she fills 3 inches of the pitcher with sugar, the height will be reduced from 7 inches to 4.

Find how many cubic inches are left for lemonade by finding the volume

Use the volume formula, V = lwh

V = lwh

V = (5)(5)(4)

V = 100

So, there are 100 cubic inches left for lemonade
