I'm doing a unit on volume and surface area. So there's a diagram that shows a fish tank after a container of water is poured into the tank. How many containers of water are needed to fill the tank? What is the formula to finding this?

#containers = tankvol/containervol

this is do dumb whats the point of math am i right

To determine how many containers of water are needed to fill the fish tank, you'll need to calculate the volume of the tank and then divide it by the volume of a single container.

1. Identify the dimensions of the fish tank. You'll need to know the length, width, and height. Let's call them "L", "W", and "H", respectively.

2. Calculate the volume of the fish tank using the formula: Volume = Length x Width x Height.

3. Once you have the volume of the tank, determine the volume of a single container of water. Let's represent it as "C".

4. Divide the volume of the tank by the volume of a single container to find the number of containers needed: Number of containers = Volume of tank / Volume of a single container.

Remember to ensure that all the units are consistent (e.g., centimeters or liters) throughout the calculations.
