Question

A child’s pool is in the shape of a rectangular prism with a height of 2 ft and a base that is 4 ft wide by 5 ft long. During the course of the summer, the child’s pool needed to be filled 3 times. How many cubic feet of water were needed to fill the pool during the summer? 40 ft³ 80 ft³ 120 ft³ 160 ft³

Answer 1

C. 120

Explanation:

v=3(2)(4)(5)

=120

Answer 2

The answer is 120 cubic feet of water

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the area of the pool;

(l)(w)(h)= 5(4)(2). That equals 20 times 2 which is 40

Step 2: Multiply the area by 3

This is because It was filled three times

40*3 = 120
