The density of a fish tank is 0.4 fish over feet cubed. There are 12 fish in the tank. What is the volume of the tank?

Solution:

The volume is the amount of space occupied by an object. Mass is the measurement of the amount of matter in the object.

Density is the space an object takes up (its volume) in relation to the amount of matter in that object(its mass).

⇒Density = Mass/ Volume

Volume of the tank = Mass / Density

Given the density of fish tank = 0.4 /cubic feet

Given number of fishes = mass = 12

Volume = (12/0.4) cubic feet

Volume = 30ft³

The density of a fish tank is 0.4 fish over feet cubed. There are 12 fish in the tank. What is the volume of the tank?

Summary:

The density of a fish tank is 0.4 fish over feet cubed. There are 12 fish in the tank. Then The volume of the tank is 30ft³
