A fish tank is in the shape of a rectangular prism. The dimensions of the tank are shown in the
picture below.
84 in.
24 in.
48 in.
What is the volume of the tank in cubic feet?
96768 is the answer
96768in^3
To calculate the volume of a rectangular prism, we need to multiply its three dimensions together.
In this case, the dimensions of the fish tank are given as:
Length = 84 in
Width = 24 in
Height = 48 in
To convert inches to feet, divide the measurements by 12 because there are 12 inches in a foot.
So, the dimensions in feet are:
Length = 84 in / 12 = 7 ft
Width = 24 in / 12 = 2 ft
Height = 48 in / 12 = 4 ft
Now we can calculate the volume by multiplying the three dimensions together:
Volume = Length * Width * Height = 7 ft * 2 ft * 4 ft = 56 cubic feet
Therefore, the volume of the fish tank is 56 cubic feet.
