Annabeth has a freshwater fish tank and a saltwater fish tank they are both cubes the side length of the freshwater tank is 15 cm the side length of the salt water tank is 45 cm how many times larger is the volume of the salt water tank then the volume of the fresh water tank
The volume of a cube is calculated by taking the length of one side and cubing it.
Volume of freshwater tank = 15 cm x 15 cm x 15 cm = 3375 cubic cm
Volume of saltwater tank = 45 cm x 45 cm x 45 cm = 91125 cubic cm
To find out how many times larger the volume of the saltwater tank is than the freshwater tank, we divide the volume of the saltwater tank by the volume of the freshwater tank:
91125 cubic cm / 3375 cubic cm = 27
Therefore, the volume of the saltwater tank is 27 times larger than the volume of the freshwater tank.
