Question

A truck whose bed is 2.5m long, 1.5m wide, and 1.0m high is delivering sand for a sand-sculpture competition. About how many trips must the truck make to deliver
`7m^(3)` of sand?

Answer 1

I believe the answer is 68.9

Answer 2

68.6 Trips

Explanation:

2.5m+1.5m+1.0=5

5m per trip

7m^3=343

divide the amount that can fit in each trip (5m)

by the amount of sand needed for the sculpture. (343m)

343 /5=68.6
