Question

Chin-Mac has a fish tank that measures 75cm by 45cm by 35cm. He also has a jug that holds 1.75 litres. He uses that jug to fill the fish tank with water. How many jugs of water does it take to fill the fish tank?

Answer 1

Answer:

Given,

Measure of fish tank are,

75 cm , 45 cm , 35 cm

Volume of water jug can hold = 1.75 liter

Step-by-step explanation: Now,

Volume of fish tank= Product of measures

                                = 75*45*35

                                =118125 $cm^{3}$

Now volume of fish tank in $m^{3}$= 118125/1000000

                                                 =0.118125$m^{3}$                [1$cm^{3}$= 1/1000000$m^{3}$]

Now volume of fish tank in liters = 0.118125*1000

                                               =118.125 liter                        [1$m^{3}$=1000 liter]

Now number of jug needed to fill fish tank = Volume of tank/ Volume of jug

                                                                       =118.125/1.75

                                                                       =67.5

So, to fill tank with jugs we will need 67 full jugs and 1 half jug of water.
