Question

There are two tanks at the aquarium. Tank A and Tank B. Each has two sections. The volume of one section of Tank A is 24 cubic feet. The volume of the other section of Tank A is 96 cubic feet. What is the total volume, in cubic feet, of Tank A?

Tank B has the same volumes as Tank A.
The volume of one section of TAnk B is 45 cubic feet. What is the volume, in cubic feet, of the other section of Tank B?

Answer 1

Question 1)

Volume of Tank A = Sum of volume of its two parts.

So,

Volume of Tank A = 24 + 96 = 120 cubic feet

Question 2)

Volume of Tank B and Tank A is the same. So, Volume of Tank B = 120 cubic feet

One section of Tank B = 45 cubic feet

So, volume of other section of tank B = 120 - 45 = 75 cubic feet
