Answer:
Aquarium can hold about 10 gallon.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : One gallon fills about 231 in3. An aquarium has a height of 15 in. and base measurements 9 in. by 18 in.
To find : how many gallons of water does the aquarium hold.
Solution : We have given that
Volume of a gallon = 231 in³.
Dimensions of aquarium = height = 15 in , length = 9 in, width = 18 in.
Volume of aquarium = length * width * height.
Plugging the values
Volume of aquarium = 9*18 * 15.
Volume of aquarium = 2430 in³.
Aquarium can hold gallon =[tex]\frac{2430}{231}[/tex]
= 10.51
Therefore, Aquarium can hold about 10 gallon.
