Sean is stacking cans of beans of the market. His shelf is 10 inches tall, 10 inches deep, and 50 inches wide. The cans are 3 inches tall and each has a volume of 9.42 cubic inches. How many cans will fit on the shelf?

Respuesta :

Basically you get the volume first:

10 times 10 times 50

Which is 5,000

And we're given the cans volume already:

9.42

So what we do now is divided the area by the cans for our answer:

5,000/9.42

Which is 530.785563

So Sean can stack 530 cans of beans in his shelf.

(when rounding is is 531 cans)

The number of cans that can fit inside the shelf will be 53 cans.

What is volume?

Volume is the scalar quantity of any object that specified occupied space in 3D.

For example, the space in our room is referred to as volume.

Volume has units of cube example meter³,cm³, etc.

The volume of cuboid = length × height × width.

The volume of the cube = side³.

The volume of the shelf (cuboid in shape) = length × height × width.

Given,

Length = 10 , width = 50 and height = 10

So,

The volume of the shelf  = 10 × 50 × 10 = 500 inches³

The volume of one can = 9.42 icnhes³ (given)

Now,

Number of can fit on the shelf = Volume of shelf/volume of one can

Number of can fit on the shelf = 500/9.42 = 53.078

Hence "The number of cans that can fit inside the shelf will be 53 cans".
