The dimension of a rectangular pool are 24.5 feet by 13 feet.
The depth of the water is 4 feet.
Each cubic foot contains 7.48 gallons of water.
How many gallons of water to the nearest tenth, are needed to fill the pool to 80% capacity
Hiw do you get an girlfriend
I need help please
The dimensions of a rectangular pool are 24.5 feet by 13 feet. The depth
of water is 4 feet. Each cubic foot contains 7.48 gallons of water.
How many gallons of water, to the nearest tenth, are needed to fill the
pool to 80% capacity?
The answer is *possibly* I am not saying this is correct but it might be 7623.616? I have no idea
I got the right answer. I was forgetting to multiply by 7.48, that is why my answer wasn't the same as the answer key. Why I forgot I don't know, maybe age. lol
The dimensions of a rectangular pool are 24.5 feet. The depth of the water is 4 feet.
To find the number of gallons of water needed to fill the pool to 80% capacity, we need to calculate the volume of the pool and then multiply it by 80%.
Step 1: Calculate the volume of the pool.
The volume of a rectangular pool is given by the formula: Volume = length x width x depth.
Given:
Length = 24.5 feet
Width = 13 feet
Depth = 4 feet
Volume = 24.5 ft x 13 ft x 4 ft = 1,274 ft³
Step 2: Calculate 80% of the volume.
To find 80% of the volume, we multiply the volume by 0.8.
80% of the volume = 1,274 ft³ x 0.8 = 1,019.2 ft³
Step 3: Convert cubic feet to gallons.
Since each cubic foot contains 7.48 gallons of water, we need to multiply the volume by 7.48 to convert it to gallons.
1,019.2 ft³ x 7.48 gallons/ft³ = 7,605.76 gallons
Therefore, to fill the pool to 80% capacity, approximately 7,605.8 gallons of water are needed.
