Answer 2

There are 10 fish in the tank

Solution:

Given that, volume of a tank is 50 cubic feet

Density is 0.2 fish over feet cubed

To find: Number of fish in the tank

Number of fish in the tank is found by multiplying the volume of tank and density

The formula is given by:

`\text{Number of fish} = \tex{\text{volume of tank}} * {\text{density of fish over feet cubed}}`

Substituting the given values, we get

`\text{Number of fish} = 50 ft^3 * \frac{\text{ 0.2 fish}}{ft^3}\\\\ \text{Number of fish} = 50 * 0.2 \text{ fish }\\\\ \text{Number of fish} = 10 \text{ fish }`

Thus there are 10 fish in the tank
