The center of your park has a pool. The pool is the shape of a rectangular prism. The volume of the pool is 189 cubic feet. If the length of the pool is 7 yards and the width is 3 yards, how deep is the pool? (Hint: 3 feet = 1 yard)

Answer:

3 yards

Explanation:

First, let's convert yards into feet. 189 feet is 63 yards.

Volume=L•W•H L=length W=width H=height

To do this we have to divide the volume by the product of the length and width and it will calculate the height.

Solving for the width:

63÷(7•3)=3 yards <-the depth of the pool
