The aquarium where Evan works has a special tank for the baby sharks. The tank is shaped like a rectangular prism and is 18 meters long by 15 meters wide. It is 8 meters from the bottom of the tank to the top. What is the volume of the shark tank?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The volume of the shark tank is [tex]2160 m^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The tank is in the shape of a rectangular prism.

The length of the tank, [tex]l=18[/tex] m.

The width of the tank, [tex]w=15[/tex] m.

The height of the tank, [tex]h=8[/tex] m.

We know that, volume of a rectangular prism [tex]=l\times w \times h[/tex].

So, the volume of the tank [tex]=18\times 15\times 8=2160 m^3[/tex]

Hence, the volume of the shark tank is  [tex]2160 m^3[/tex].
