Given that the the volume is 1400cm3 , determine whether he would have been able to fit inside the fish tank, if Mr Potato Head was at most 8cm in length , 5cm in width and 6cm in height
To determine whether Mr Potato Head would have been able to fit inside the fish tank, we need to calculate the volume of Mr Potato Head and compare it to the volume of the fish tank.
The volume of Mr Potato Head is given by multiplying the length, width, and height: 8 cm x 5 cm x 6 cm = 240 cm^3.
Since the volume of Mr Potato Head (240 cm^3) is less than the volume of the fish tank (1400 cm^3), he would have been able to fit inside the fish tank.
To determine whether Mr. Potato Head would fit inside the fish tank, we need to compare the volume of Mr. Potato Head with the volume of the fish tank.
The volume of Mr. Potato Head can be calculated by multiplying its length, width, and height:
Volume of Mr. Potato Head = Length × Width × Height
= 8cm × 5cm × 6cm
= 240 cm³
Now, let's compare the volume of Mr. Potato Head with the volume of the fish tank:
Volume of Fish Tank = 1400 cm³
Since the volume of Mr. Potato Head (240 cm³) is less than the volume of the fish tank (1400 cm³), we can conclude that Mr. Potato Head would be able to fit inside the fish tank.
