A right rectangular prism can be used to simulate an aquarium. Its measurements are 14 by 7 by 4 inches. If there are 153 cubic inches of water in the aquarium, There is a 61 % empty space.
The term “volume” refers to the amount of three-dimensional space taken up by an item or a closed surface. It is denoted by V and its SI unit is in cubic cm.
The volume of the aquarium is;
V=14 × 7 × 4 = 392 inch³
The % by which the container is empty is found as;
[tex]\%Empty= \frac{392-153}{392} \times 100 \ \\\\ \%Empty= \frac{239}{392} \times 100 \\\\ \%Empty= 61\%[/tex]
Hence, there is a 61 % empty space.
