Cal's go cart has a gas tank with the dimensions shown below. He uses a gas can that holds 1 gallon of gas, to fill the go cart tank. 1 gallon = 231 inches^3. How many full gas cans will it take to fill the go cart's gas tank?
Answer: 2 full gas cans
Step-by-step explanation:
From the image, we have the following dimensions:
length, l = 15.4 inches (in)
width, w = 10 in
height, h = 3 in.
The volume of the gas tank (which is rectangular) is given as:
[tex]Volume = length * width * height = lwh\\\\Volume = 15.4 * 10 * 3 = 462 cubic inches = 462in^{3}[/tex]
NB: The unit of volume is cubic units. In this example, it is cubic inches.
The gas can being used to fill the tank holds 1 gallon of gas = [tex]231in^{3}[/tex]
The total volume to be filled is [tex]462in^{3}[/tex] of gas.
So, it will take [tex]\frac{462in^{3} }{231in^{3} } = 2[/tex] full gas cans to fill the go cart's gas tank.
Therefore, the answer is 2.
