2. Simpson has a rectangular fish aquarium that measures 31 inches long, 13 inches wide, and is 28 inches deep. If Simpson wanted to put a protective covering on the four glass walls of the aquarium, how much covering does he need?

Answer 1

Question 1 :

Volume = Length x Width x Height 
Volume = 31 x 13 x 28
Volume = 11284 in³

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Volume = 11284 in³
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Question 2:
Surface area of the four glass walls = 2(31 x 28) + 2(13 x 28)
Surface area of the four glass walls = 1736 + 728
Surface area of the four glass walls = 2464 in²

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Covering needed = 2464 in²
