Bradford has an aquarium with a base that is 22 inches x 12 inches and a height that is 15 inches. What is the volume of the aquarium? Would the volume of the aquarium change if it did not have a lid? Explain.

Sagot :

What you would do first is multiply  22in times 12in, which is [tex] 264in^{2} [/tex].

Then, you would do that times 15in, which is [tex] 3960in^{3} [/tex].

So, the answer to the first question is [tex] 3960in^{3} [/tex].

The next answer would be that no, the volume would not change because taking off the lid will not change how much the aquarium can hold.
