An aquarium in a restaurant is a rectangular prism and measures 5 feet by 3.5 feet by 2.5 feet. what is the amount of water the aquarium will hold?

In this case, you would be finding the area. Since you're trying to figure out how much water can the tank hold in the inside.

Since this is a rectangular prism, the equation you would use for this is:

l × w × h

For your situation:

Length: 5

Width: 3.5

Height: 2.5

So you would plug those into the equation:

Plug in 5 to L, plug in 3.5 to W, and plug in 2.5 to H

5 × 3.5 × 2.5 = 43.75

When you multiply the numbers you would get 43.75.

The amount of water the aquarium could hold is 43.75 cubic feet.

step-by-step explanation:

there are 36 inches in a yard

25 : 36 = 0.69 yards (you can round to 0.70)
