Question

Anne has an aquarium in the shape of a rectangular prism that measures 10 in. By 20 in. By 10 in. How many cubic inches of water can the aquarium hold?

Answer 1

`Volume = 2000\ in^3`

Explanation:

Given

Dimension: 10in by 20in by 10in

Required

Determine the capacity of the aquarium

This question implies that, we calculate the volume of the prism and this is calculated by multiplying the dimensions of the aquarium. i.e.

`Volume = Length * Width * Height`

Substitute values for the dimensions

`Volume = 10 * 20 * 10`

`Volume = 2000\ in^3`

Hence, the volume of the aquarium is 2000 cubic inches
