The owner of Carlisle Construction is a little
overprotective of his brand new cement mixer,
so each night, he parks it in a storage facility
that is 120 feet long, 45 feet wide, and 45
feet high. What is the facility's volume in cubic
yards?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The facility's volume in cubic yards is 9000

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the facility is given by the multiplication of it's dimensions.

We want the volume in cubic yards, so the dimensions have to be in yards.

Each feet has a third of an yard. So the dimensions are:

120 feet = 40 yards

45 feet = 15 yards

45 feet = 15 yards

What is the facility's volume in cubic yards?

[tex]V = 40*15*15 = 9000[/tex]

The facility's volume in cubic yards is 9000
